Tummy tuck or lipo? (photo)

December 2, 2013
Asked By:Eclectchic

Hi, I am wanting to fix my tummy (amongst other things), and am thinking about a tummy tuck. After the birth of my second child I was told I had a very wide separation which may require surgery to repair, plus I have a pouch of fat that's not shifting. One doctor has recommended a tummy tuck, and one has recommended lipo. Both recommendations have come from photos only so far, as I live in a very remote part of Australia. What would you recommend based on the pictures?
