    I don’t have a lot of loose skin - not handfuls but still good pinches & crumpling. I’ve decided not to go the surgery route. Like @NovaLuna, I can easily cover it with clothes without the need of any support underwear (& that includes in fitted clothing) & no one knows it’s there but me. I feel I sort of earned my loose skin. It’s a reminder every day to stick to my program.
    Plus I tend to scar pretty badly. Rather have some loose skin than scars cause I’d be wanting to cover them anyway.
    Actually you can see the little pinch of looseness at my waist in the first pxt. Standing up straight though it’s really nothing. So I’ve been pretty fortunate.

    Echoing the other responses, excess skin is very easy to hide under clothing. I’m younger but still had a excess skin. I don’t think age is a problem (for plastics) unless the surgeon tells you no.

    Good luck to everyone who is awaiting Gastric Sleeve surgery hope it all goes well for you all.
    Is there anyone on here who is a few years down the line? Is your appetite still curbed ? Are you still eating small portions ? Are you still taking Vitamins and Protein Shakes? Has the weight kept off? Any new medical problems developed?
    Sorry for all the questions but this is life changing, major surgery and I have to be sure of what I'm committing to. All answers gratefully received. Thank you.

    Hi everyone,
    I'm from Birmingham UK. I haven't had any surgery yet, just thinking about it but I was wondering if anyone has a problem with excess skin after a huge weight loss? Is it very noticeable? Is it worse than being over weight?
    Also, I'm 70 in April 2022, am I too old or vain for such a procedure?
