I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair however was surprised with another baby 3 years after. I want back to see my doctor because I ended up having a c section and have a little pooch. My doctor recommended a mini tummy tuck but I'm worried it won't be enough. Do you think a mini tummy tuck will help improve my stomach?

Answer: I had a tummy tuck and then got pregnant. Will a mini tummy tuck improve my stomach? (photos) A mini TT involves removal of a small amount of skin and fat below the belly button that addresses only the lower portion of the abdomen. No plication or muscle tightening is performed and belly button remains attached and unchanged. This procedure applies to very few patients and is appropriate only for patients who have loose skin at the inferior aspect, or bottom, of the abdomen. If patients have loose skin above the belly button or muscle laxity, a short scar would be more appropriate.

Answer: Mini TT vs Liposuction It is hard to say without an in person consultation. However, based on your pictures you may benefit from having liposuction of your lower abdomen and flanks.
