Hi, I am quite a petite person and am thinking about getting a tummy tuck. I want to be able to wear a bikini again but am scared I’m going to end up worst than where I started. I had multiple back to back pregnancies that stretched out my skin. I want the lose skin gone but don’t want to deal with the scar and my stomachs still looking crepey from the stretch marks. Am I a candidate for a tummy tuck or is there another non invasive surgery I can undergo?
