Scheduled for Smart Lipo and Mini Tummy Tuck 7/21,

Tags: belly fat, dress size, exercise

I am quite active and after having 2 children, I am satisifed and feel that I am completely done having more. I have alot of excess skin and even working out 3-4 times weekly does not touch my abdominal areas. It also restricts me from dropping any dress sizes. I'm not looking to wear a bikini, but I am interested in looking and feel better. I'm not asking for perfect flat abdomen. Judging by pictures is the procedure I'm scheduled for gonna make me drop dress sizes by reducing the fat?

The wrong procedure for you

In my opinion, you are choosing the entirely wrong procedure for the starting point you have. A full tummy tuck is what you need because you have too much extra skin and fat to do well with a miniTT and liposuction of any kind. I would strongly encourage that you check the credentials of the doctor you went to (a real Board Certified Plastic Surgeon?? I rather doubt it) and seek at least 2-3 other opinions before proceeding. Good luck!
