I'm researching which procedure would be right for me. I've seen ads for non invasive laser lipo which seems appealing but I'm not sure if that would be enough to correct my issues. I'm also wondering if i go the tummy tuck route would i need a mini or full? I may have another child but this would not be for five years or so if I do. Would it be worth it to get a procedure now? Thank you in advance for any answers!
