This question is for a friend that has lost 122lbs so far and has a lot of loose sagging skin. I hate to say it but its really gross. She's wanting to have major surgery to remove it and tighten but I am worried about it. Can a person really tighten up that much skin on their own without surgery? Is that even psossible? I'm talking a major amount of loose skin to where she can pull her stomach skin out like 4 to 5 inches. I just worry that surgery is so risky.
