Excess Skin

Have you ever lost a huge amount of weight and been left with extra skin? I think most of us have some loose and excess skin, some much worse than others. This happens when extremely obese individuals lose weight or when weight loss happens very quickly. To help prevent this you want to lose weight at a slow pace. The recommended 1-2 pounds a week is ideal and it allows your skin time to shrink back naturally. If you have a large amount of excess skin that just won't shrink back, well then surgery may be you only option.
