I’m 38, 5’9” and 147 lbs. I have had a twin pregnancy and two singleton pregnancies and am done having kids. I’m currently signed up for a mommy makeover with a top surgeon who only does/specializes in body surgery, but am having second thoughts about the tummy tuck portion. I have very little loose skin, a long torso and a high belly button. My PS says I need a full TT due to significant diastasis above and below the navel. He said I will need either an inverted T scar or possibly floating vertical scar depending upon how far he can stretch my skin. I really want a low scar, and am concerned it will be too high (either the horizontal or vertical or both) due to lack of skin. That said, I’m tired of sucking in my stomach 24/7 to not look pregnant and have constant back pain when trying to lift weights, kids etc. Thoughts?
