Hello I have lost 115 lbs and I am booked in for surgery and originally booked for FDL tummy tuck but after paying my deposit the surgeon as said I don’t need FDL and I only need to have an extended tummy tuck, I’m feeling this won’t be enough for me? Is this something I should reconsider and just get the extended ? Thank you
