5'4" and 104 lbs - Extended tummy tuck or full tummy tuck? (photo)

February 20, 2025
Asked By:Polite757698 in Culver City, California

I have seen 3 drs. All DBL board C. The last one said i needed an extended TT but said the scar would only go slightly beyond my hip (not around or the back) Is this an upsell or even necessary? He wants $23,000 for the ETT and another $20,000 for an implant with donut lift. Each DR has said different things but this one is the only one suggesting the ETT. Im 5'4" and 104 lbs. Can i just get a full? Isnt that what it is if its just on the front?
