Question

I'm curious what results for me would work best. Mostly curious if AirSculpting would be a good option vs tummy tuck.

Choosing procedures should be based on first having a clear understanding of what the problem is. In other words the first step is to make an accurate diagnosis or assessment.
There are four variables that determine what someone’s abdomen looks like.
In other words if somebody does not like the way their belly looks it is always because of one or more of for different reasons.
Before variables are abdominal skin laxity typically due to previous pregnancies or wait fluctuations, excess subcutaneous fat, muscle separation from previous pregnancies and lastly excess of visceral or intra-abdominal fat.
Your pictures shows an abdomen that doesn’t have an even fat distribution. Have you had liposuction before? 
Based on your pictures it looks like you have all four of those variables.
Your a domino wall is bulging significantly. Most likely this is due to excess visceral fat and obesity. you must likely also have muscle separation if you have children.
Your subcutaneous fat layer looks relatively thin and it looks like you’ve already had liposuction.
Do you have moderate skin laxity in a slightly dependent small Skin hang, 
An accurate assessment requires an examination but your pictures are pretty telling. Most likely visceral fat is a major component of why your abdomen looks the way it does and if that’s the case wave loss is necessary before you become a candidate for any procedure.
Most likely you’ll need to lose at least 50 pounds before being a good candidate and at that point the correct procedure will be a full tummy tuck.
If you’ve had a previous liposuction than a secondary liposuction is unlikely to deliver impressive results if any.
Weight loss should be your first plan of action.
