I have had two previous pregnancy's the first as a teen with twins and a single birth 7 months ago. I want to get a tummy tuck done but I really want the scaring to be minimum. Which procedure would work best for me and is a mini tummy tuck a option?

Answer: Mini vs. full tummy tuck
There are pros and cons to each procedure. The mini tummy tuck has the advantage of avoiding a scar around your belly button and usually a shorter scar in the bikini line. BUT, with the mini tuck, the upper abdomen cannot be tightened. The full tuck has more scar but provides a correction for your entire abdomen. If only the lower skin is loose and there isn't much problem in your upper abdomen, then a mini tuck can indeed be a better choice.

Answer: Mini versus full tummy tuck after twins pregnancy
A mini tummy tuck does not mean a short incision. After twins it is most likely you will need a full. See the description of the procedures in the video in the linked page below that describes the differences.
