I had a child 6 months ago and went from a relatively flat stomach to having some lower belly fat, I was 135lbs pre-pregnancy and I’m 145lbs now and 5’4. I am wondering if smart lipo would be an option to help flatten my stomach or even with a combo of that and 10lb weight loss could achieve that result. I seriously do not want a tummy tuck under any circumstance I hate the scar and the way the belly buttons look- very unnatural.
