How to tighten stomach after weight loss?

I recently lost a little over 90 pounds in the span of 7 months. With such a huge change in such a short amount of time, there's obviously some extra skin. I'm know longer overweight, but my stomach still looks flabby because of the extra skin. I have strong abs under the extra skin, but I don't know what I can do to get rid of the extra skin, or to tighten up the skin. Are there any strategies to get rid of extra skin, or will it just take time for the extra skin to tighten up? Thank you for the help.

Update:

I should note that there isn't a TON of extra skin. It's only a little in my stomach. I'm also only 19.

    Without drastic and expensive surgery, there really is no way. Try wearing a tighter belt and larger shirts.

    Most people who lose a lot of weight have the extra skin surgically removed. There are places who will do it for free, they use the skin for skin grafts on burn victims.
