I'm 65 and have world-class granny flaps. Seriously, I could kill someone if I whacked him upside the head with them. I never go sleeveless. If you are young enough your skin could tone up, but like kristieshannon said, sometimes surgery is the only solution.

Some exercises will work to strengthen muscles and fill in the loose area but if its truly just a lot of skin surgery is the best bet.

green teal I saw your after picture. CONGRATS! And thanks for sharing. You don’t look loose at all. Did you get the skin reduction surgery?

I'm almost 73, so now I have grown to live with my body. I'm married for 48 years, so the only one I have to impress is me. Too bad it took so long to figure this out. BTW I had skin removal after the band and almost died. I threw 3 blood clots. Now I am what I am.
