How do I know if I need one?

I have some baggy skin but I'm only 18. I have not yet seen a doctor and am too embarassed to show a live person. I can't tell if it will retract with excersize or if I am going to have to have something done about it.

Please help! I will send someone a picture but am not posting a picture of my stomach publically.

Hi Hollie,

Congratulations on your weight loss!!!!

Many plastic surgeons will do "virtual consults" where you can begin the consultation process by sending photos via email.

I suggest that you contact some Dr.'s who offer this service and who you might be interested in working with if it's determined that plastic surgery is the best course of action for you.

Good luck!!!!
