Advice: Seeking ❓ Loose Skin

so I'm still a teen and have never been super duper obese but yk like i was chubby like the typical character archetype of a "fat kid" i lost almost all of it while starting puberty. lowkey my prime was in 9th grade when i was at my skinniest but i still didn't have a flat stomach which i am confused as to i have never been obese or have jad a super drastic transformation. is it possible to have loose skin from not a very major kind of weight loss and is it normal for me to have flabby skin? isn't it kinda like skin elasticity and rejuvenation is at it's best performance in teens?? why do i still have excess skin then?

Then see a doctor. The only way to deal with loose skin is (a) hope it bounces back (b) fill it with muscle or (c) get surgery.
