Skin elasticity is really variable so you might be unlucky enough to have excess skin that won't snap back easily. it's not unreasonable to ask a doctor to evaluate your situation but if you are still in wieght loss mode, i'd wait until I maintained may new weight for at least a year or more before seeking possible treatments. You don;t want to remove skin or treat it and then regain weight.
