Guest guest Posted October 31, 2001 Report Share Posted October 31, 2001 Hi a, From what I understand, unless you're in your late teens/early twenties, nothing will make the excess skin go away or shrink. Creams, ointments, salves and other goops may make the skin smoother, but skin that has been stretched for many years by obesity will not shrink back significantly. Keep in mind that a lot of this has to do with how much weight you have to lose. I went from 260 to 165 on a diet two years ago and the skin sag, wasn't keeping me from wearing shorts or a size 10 two-piece tankini. -maria > > Since I am pre-op was happens to the excess skin??
