Answer: Your chest Congratulations on your weight loss! By your history and appearance, there appears to be fat and glandular excess. There may even be skin redundancy. The treatment would included liposuction of the chest with partial gland excision with the hopes that your skin will tighten. You should have a fantastic result.
