Asked By:turtle tummy in Cary, NC

I'm looking for a doctor. I have had two doctors tell me they do oblique tightening as well to make more of an hourglass shape. I want a full tummy tuck. 8 full term pregnancies 2 preg. were twins (10 babies) I'm 47, 5'8", 130lbs. Two doctors tell me they do oblique tightening as well to make more of an hourglass shape. Is this legitimate if so why don't all plastic surgeons do that. I would have a hard time finding a great Doctor Who is also willing to videotape the procedure? Fat transfer - in the long run will it look terrible? Willing to travel, but Miami terrifies me with the alluring cheap prices. Thank you.
