    I don't think so since you will lose it slowly.

    ^^ This. Lose the weight slowly and not all at once, and your skin will adjust. It might take a little time, but you are young so that is definitely in your favor.

    yes, although there are things you can do to lessen the chance. make sure you drink plenty of water, and by plenty you should be drinking more than 2L a day. looking into vitamins that help with skin health and daily moisturizers and skin creams. you want to make sure your skin is really healthy which will help with the elasticity
