31 years old, after having my third and last child the skin above my belly button began to sag, I work out and I've lost the weight from my stomach area but now I just have the skin that's wrinkly.. If I pull and hold the skin right above my belly button it looks perfect... but how I do I get that permanent result?

Answer: Tummy tuck candidate Dear Exxotic529,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination but based on your photos and description, you might be a candidate for a tummy tuck. A full tummy tuck address all of the skin laxity and abdominal wall laxity. It repositions your umbilicus as well. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Answer: Mini Tummy tuck Thank you for your question and photos. Based on the pictures alone, I'd say you are an excellent candidate for a mini tummy tuck. Similar to the full tummy tuck, the mini removes excess skin using an incision about the same size as a C-Section scar. It is ideal for patients like yourself who have only a small amount of skin laxity at the center abdomen with little fat. Best of luck to you!
