Best results, tightest abdomen would be full tummy tuck- can do without muscle repair for quicker recovery.

This will best address belly button and skin above as well as below. Unfortunately, weight loss does not always leave skin tight and tummy tuck best option.

An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon is recommended to discuss your options and expectations.

Based on your series, a very nicely posted photos. There is a flap of skin in the lower abdomen, but also there is wrinkle skin throughout the complete abdomen. If you wish the flat smooth, looking result, then you need a full tummy tuck with muscle repair. That fee could range from $8000-$15,000. A mini tummy tuck would only remove the lower flap and not affect any skin throughout the abdomen that fee would be $4000. Best virtual concert with regards
