Smart Lipo or Mini-tummy Tuck?

Deb Guzaldo
I'm 33 years old and have three kids all naturally birthed (no c-section).  I am 5 feet tall, 120lbs and in my lower abdomen I have some pockets of fat. It's noticeable when I sit down, it's not saggy, but it certainly doesn't look good. Do you think I would be a better candidate for Smart Lipo or for a mini tummy tuck?
