Hello! I m 50, had 2 pregnancies, one with twins. I lost 20lbs and on my way to lose 10lbs more. I really don't like the hip to hip scar of a full tummy tuck. I do have excess skin but not much (?). I also cannot feel a diastasis. I'd love to do just a lipo with a non invasive technique to tighten the skin if I'm a candidate. At the most a mini tummy tuck or a scarless tummy tuck but I am not sure I am a candidate. Am I a candidate to mini or a scarless tummy tuck with lipo? Thank you!

Dear MarieS,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
