Asked By:Natasha2403 in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada

I am 39 years old 5‘,6“ tall and 145 pounds. I have one child who was born via C-section and was 10 pounds. I had thre consultations with three plastic surgeons and I am still second-guessin if I have enough skin for a full tummy tuck (instead of a umbilical float or a mini which I’m not interested in). I think I need full TT (understanding I may require a small vertical incision). The pictures provided are from the morning to evening. By 1 PM I generally look like I’m pregnant. Thoughts?
