Hi There, I'm starting to get really concerned with this. I'm a dancer, So I have to wear some pretty revealing costumes sometimes, and I've been able to cover it up so far, but my stomach jiggles. I lost about 80- 100 pounds over the course of years, and this stomach jiggle will not go away, I exercise and eat healthy foods, with little to no change. Can someone please tell me if this is fat or loose skin? What are my options? Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

Answer: Post Weith Loss Relapse In Skin Laxity You have both loose skin and fat. The relapse and residual skin laxity is most likely a result of your signficant weight loss. Weight loss patients can have relapse of their skin laxity after a procedure as a result of the extreme weight change and changes in collagen. Repeat operation with removal of additional tissue is sometimes necessary in severe cases. It is a consequence of your biology and physical findings and not the procedure. Whether you pursue an additional procedure depends on how much correction you desire. All the best!

Answer: Fat or excess skin I think it is a combination of both, given your weight loss but only an exam can elucidate this. I would not anticipate that your skin will contract sufficiently with lipo alone and this is obviously a major consideration given your profession.
