You would need to make changes to the Web service WSDL first and then regenerate the Skeleton from the WSDL, like wise the WebService client will have to regenerate Client Stub with new WSDL and use it on the client side.

Example of changes to WSDL:

<complexType name='ArrayOfString'>
    <sequence>
        <element name='item' type='xsd:string' maxOccurs='unbounded'/>
    </sequence> 
</complexType>
