I lost >40kg fat. How much more to go? 3~5kg? How to deal with the excess skin? Can I even do anything about it?

Sure? What about going a little lower from here, 1 or 2kg in order to tiny bulk over summer?
No need I would say, if you add muscle mass it tips the body fat percentage scale in your favour even if your total body fat doesn't change at all. More muscle, same fat = less body fat %. And If you were to say put on 20lbs of muscle (doable in your first year with newb gains) your skin would tighten up to an extent all over
Isn't it a problem that there is no big muscle where the skin is? Growing the lower abs to fill that void sounds not doable
Your trunk will get bigger all around, mostly on the back, which may help
