Vaser Lipo or Tummy Tuck or Other?

Alli in mn
I am 37 and have had an appendectomy and two c-sections. I am close to my ideal body weight (5'7", 145 pounds) and exercise daily but have been unable to get rid of my large stomach. My appendix scar is large (done 20 years ago) and I have access skin as I was rather big with both pregnancies. I like the results of a tummy tuck but am a busy working mother of three and am concerned about the length of recovery time. I am debating between vaser lipo or tummy tuck but am open to other procedures.
