Mini Tummy Tuck for Stretch Marks and Piercing Scar?

I'm 20 years old and I just had a baby about 6 months ago. Before I had her, I had a beautiful stomach--now I hate it. I have ugly stretch marks under my belly button.  I also have an ugly belly peircing scar and a thick c-section scar. I want to be able to wear a bikini again and not feel self consious. I was thinking about a mini tummy tuck to get rid of the stretch marks. Will it also work for the scars? If not, do you have any suggestions, especially about the ugly peircing scar?

A: Will a mini tummy tuck work?

The first question you have to answer is, "Am I done having children?" If not, you may want to wait until you are done.

If you are done, a mini tummy tuck would make you flatter, but will not get rid of all of your striae and scars.

A standard tummy tuck is possible with a slight vertical scar in the lower abdomen for the closure of your umbilicus defect, since it is unlikely that you have enough skin above your belly button to reach to your pubic area.
