If we lose weight too fast or if we lose a lot of weight, we run the risk of having loose skin where our weight loss was greatest, especially in areas around our middle.

Unfortunately, these skin folds (over-stretched skin) may be difficult if not impossible to remove through normal exercise or dieting.

If you are younger, this loose skin may regain some of it's elasticity. If you are older (and overweight for a long time prior to losing weight) the loose skin is likely to remain.

The only guaranteed way to remove loose skin is by having a surgical operation called Abdominoplasty
