Will I Have Saggy Skin After Lipo (For Bbl)? (photo)

Spanx91
I am 5'8 and used to weigh 226lbs. I am now down to 170lbs. I want to have a bbl done but my problem is, if I have lipo from my abdomin, back, and flanks, will that leave me with sagging skin? Is it possible to just get fat from my back and flanks and not touch the stomach? I know lipo doesn't improve stretch marks or tightness of the skin, but if its going to leave me with sagging skin, I can't do the bbl. I am 21 and want kids in the future so I'm not contemplating a tt at the moment.
