Could I Lose Loose Skin Without Surgery?

[WrathOfOlives]

I lost quite a bit of weight and lost a lot of stored fat around my lower abdomen, to where now the skin is not too tight and droopy around the belly button.

For comparison I used to have about 20kg extra body fat on me before:

I was wondering if any previously fat bros have experience in dealing with some loose skin and if it will retract over time.

progressive overload on weight loss, like if I don't lose at least 0.5kg in 2 weeks in a row, reduce calories by 100. repeat, and add in week long diet breaks at maintenance every 4-5 weeks to replenish glycogen / metabolism (but you can chalk this part up to bro science, the main thing is progressive overload on calorie deficit.)
