Many people don't need plastic surgery.  Some people prefer to get it even if it's not really medically necessary.  Others don't need it or want it.  I don't want it.  I don't think I need it, and I prefer not to have unnecessary surgery.

The overwhelming majority of us have enough skin to warrant plastic surgery. I have been around a lot of post-ops in real life. From personal observation my guess would be over 80%.

My sister had her WLS two years ago and went from 304 to 150 and she did not need any.  She looks amazing.
