Will The Loose Skin Around The Lower Abdomen And Breast Area Go Away On It S Own?

Hi, I m 19 years old and weigh 185 lbs. When I was 16 I realized I should start losing weight (weighed in at 263 lbs.) After a year of good diet and exercise (cardio + strength training) I ve managed to lose 88 lbs. I m still on my healthy lifestyle and maintaining it very well but I have an issue with loose skin around the lower abdomen and breast area. I ve noticed it has gone down a bit and I didn t have a LOT to begin with. I m 5 11, if that helps at all. I m just wondering if it will go away on it s own.
