I am 46 and have had 2 C sections . I finally lost the baby fat, after 24 years. But still have the belly , and wanted to get something done.
I went to a local PS and he is great. Told me what we needed to do to get a flat tummy and a girlish figure with lipo. He took before pictures and we set a date. Dec. 19 at 8:30 .
I have put up my before pictures of my tummy. I have never had a flat tummy and told my husband its time. I am glad I found this website and have learned alot from all of you.
Will keep you up to date on this great Journey!

Good luck! Will you be able to get the scar removed with a mini tummy tuck?

He will try to clean up the scar, but will have a little left. But I am so wanting a flat tummy , that that won't matter! Maybe get a nice tattoo or tummy ring to cover it! Haha!

Started eating and feel much better. Go to PS on Friday. Will see what he thinks. Having trouble putting in binder by my self. But figuring it out

Wow it looks great...I am not as happy with my turnout so far. I am now 12 days post op and still have some loose skin on my flanks and a little pouch. I am not as flat I expected. I will be following up on Tuesday.
