How can I assist my skin to retract after weight loss??

I am going to have the Lap Band surgery in 30 days time and right now I am 352 but the goal is 200. I am SO paranoid about the excess skin from the rapid weight loss. Is there any(sensible) methods to try and utilize while losing weight? I just hate to think of ,000.00 in skin augmentation surgery. Any help would be great and thanks for reading!

How long does it take for one's skin to shrink after major weight loss?

I have seen instances where people have lost a great deal of weight but have a lot of excess skin after the weight loss. Can this be avoided without requiring surgery?

Which Nivea Lotion is BEST for "orange peel" belly? Goodbye Cellulite, Anti-Age Treatment, or My Silhouette!

Nivea has a few different products for skin tightning, cellulite, etc. Just a little confused about which one is best for my purpose.

I’m in my early 30s, but have had the orange peel thing happening on my stomach for the past year.

Just purchased Nivea’s Goodbye Cellulite, in addition to Nivea’s Age Defying Moisturizer, both for use on my body and not my face.

But I wonder if the "orange peel" belly is even cellulite or just excess skin from when I lost 10 pounds, and if the cellulite gel would even work for this.

NIVEA PRODUCTS’ CLAIMS

Anti-Age Treatment Body Lotion
Less wrinkles, e.g. at décolleté or arm pit area
Less dryness all over the body

My Silhouette!/Slimming & Reshaping Gel-Cream
Leads to a reduction of up to 3 cm on targeted body parts such as thighs, hips, waist and belly.

Good-bye Cellulite Gel-Cream
Visible reduction of the appearance of cellulite at the respective body parts.

Help! Don’t want to use the incorrect product for my belly….
I forgot about Skin Firming Moisturiser by Nivea.

CLAIMS
Noticeably firms the skin
Tangibly tightens the skin
Moisturises the skin

Sigh.
