There are several factors that will influence whether your skin will tighten up and, if so, how quickly. First, if you have rapidly lost 50 or more pounds, your skin may never completely tighten up on its own. In such cases, only surgery will restore the aesthetics you seek.. Even then, however, there is a risk of scarring.
As well, if you are past the age of 40, or have spent significant time in the sun, your skin may have suffered damage and the collagen structure within the skin may be broken down. In such cases, restoring sagging skin naturally, is very difficult
If you have lost less weight or have reduced weight slowly over a period of months, you may be in luck. If you have genetically "elastic" skin, or you are in your teens or early 20s you may need to do nothing, the natural resiliency of your skin will take care of itself given time.
The health of your skin often reflects the overall healthfulness of your diet. If you're eating lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and taking in sufficient healthy fats, especially omega 3s, your skin has a better chance of retaining or regaining its youthful elasticity and tightening back into place.
Until recently, I had some issues with sagging skin during contest prep. Adding extra, healthy fats to my diet has worked remarkably well for me.
