Early 20s mom of one done having children I have a consult for a tummy tuck but thinking lipo and/or BBL will maximize my results, thoughts? What should I ask the plastic surgeon regarding this type of combo surgery? - I strength train 3 times a week and do 40 minutes of cardio daily so I have a very healthy lifestyle but still look "square" and "frumpy" - my ideal body goals would be to have the fat in my flanks gone and a hourglass shape. Is this realistic for my body shape?
