Tummy Tuck vs. Smart Lipo? (photos)

February 17, 2015
Asked By:elegantone in Florida, FL

Hi Docs! I have a wrinkled belly after 2 babies. I have worked hard after weighing up to 195 with my first pregnancy and lost all the weight plus some. I have seen amazing before and after pics from smart lipo. I know the skin tightening isn't equivalent to a tummy tuck, but I would be happy with being 40-50% tighter in my abdomen. I am 37, 5'6" and 146 lbs. I don't want the long tummy tuck recovery, but I want wear a bikini or crop top again! Thank you in advance!
