Female, 30, 5’1”, 135 lbs, birthed 2 children, highest weight previously 175 lbs. I have a tattoo the size of my fist and I am able to make my tattoo disappear by being completely covered by my other skin. I attached 2 photos when showing my skin covering my tattoo completely horizontally and vertically. Previous BBL. Would FDL be a good option for me or a different type? I want to make sure to get rid of the loose skin under my bra line also. Sorry if not good enough photos. Thank you.

Answer: Am I candiate for a Fleur de Lis Tummy Tuck? Hello and thank you for your question. It difficult to answer your question with zoomed in photos you shared, but it does appear that you may be a good candidate for a tummy tuck with liposuction. This can be done through a low and short incision, all completely below the bikini line. The belly button can be designed to look natural and have no scars on the exterior. Your muscles can also be plicated resulting in a flat abdomen. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. I would recommend to obtain an in person consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to further discuss your options and expectations. I hope this helps.

Answer: FDL Thanks for your question! The only way to determine the correct approach is to evaluate you in person. A lot of that laxity can probably be corrected with a standard or extended tummy tuck, but you should be seen to get an exact answer. Good luck!
