I am soon looking into a tummy tuck but I do not have all the lose skin allot of other women have but looks like my ab muscles are messed up allot higher then a mini tummy tuck would cover any insight you can give me would be great thanks :)
Based on the photo's that you sent I would not suggest any surgery be done. The shape is good , the skin laxity is nonexistent, the muscles appear to be together. No photo is as good as an in person exam so I suggest you get the opinion of a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
Is a full tummy tuck ideally used on patients who have recently lost a lot more weight rather than a patient who gains and looses weight from a typical pregnancy. Is a mini tummy tuck sufficient for pregnancy stretch marks and loose skin?
In my experience, min tummy tucks are rarely performed because most patients actually need more skin removal than is achieved with a mini. Your best option is to see your PS and discuss the options with him/her. Making the determination of a mini or full tummy tuck is best done by your PS after assesing your goals and amount of tissue excess.
Will a mini tummy tuck and lipo work for me? Not looking for a long scar hip to hip nor a completely flat stomach just improvement on my belly.
To get the best result a full abdominoplasty would be best, however you would get some improvement if you did lipo with a mini abdominoplasty. In the picture there is excess skin above the umbilicus and after a mini this excess would still be present.
