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.

Watch this video to see how liposuction, used to remove unwanted localized deposits of fat, is performed.
