Stretch marks and loose skin - am I a candidate for Tummy Tuck or Liposuction? (photos)

Babylifter
I had two pregnancies back to back during the pandemic. I did my best to take care of my skin and don't have a ton of stretch marks just a bit of loose skin. I'm wondering if I'm a good candidate for a tummy tuck or I can get away with just Lipo and maybe a skin tightening alternative like j-plasma? I'm trying to avoid a tummy tuck (if it's avoidable)because I tend to not always scar well. Please advise.
