Considering a Tummy Tuck, but recently learned about Reverse Tummy Tuck, which would be best for my body. (photos)

I am 4 years post gastric sleeve surgery. I am 40 years old and in decent shape, 5’9” and large boned. After my sx I got down to 175ish and I’ve finally stabilized at around 200. I have always had a large upper belly (above the belly button), the epitome of a “muffin top”. When I sit, I look as if I am pregnant. I have never had children and my shape has driven to all of my motivations to exercise/sx. I really just want my upper belly gone, but to still look as good as possible afterwards too, of course.
