I'm contemplating a tummy tuck, I've had 2 c-sections and also surgery to remove a part of uterine tissue that was stitched in my c-section scar that would inflame during my monthly due to my endometriosis. It's all fixed now. I'm concerned if it's possible to get my previous scar lowered and flatten out my midsection and under boob flab. My groin region is flat then when it hits my scar it starts bulging all over the place. Underwear doesn't sit nicely without having an unflattering bulge.
