Ive had multiple consults in an attempt to find a MD I trust. With each consult there was a very different tx plan sugestedI'm 5'3 188lbs and had a significant about of weight loss plus 2 children. One MD suggested a lower body lift with lipo and the other said that was extreme and I didn't need it and i would do well with a tummy tuck and back lipo. What age the benifits and downfalls for each one amd what would i b a good canidate for?

Answer: Considering options From the supplied photos it appears you would be a good candidate for an extended tummy tuck and liposuction for contouring. This would address loose abdominal skin, muscle wall separation, and excess subcutaneous fat. A lower body lift would be indicated if you have significant loose skin on the back and buttocks that you would like addressed.

Answer: Tummy tuck vs body lift Dear _Ari86_, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
