I got a mini TT, lipo of hips, BA/BL 3 weeks ago (5/17. At my consult my PS said that although I had two large children naturally, I had no real muscle laxity at top. He said I could likely get away with just the lipo of my abdomen, but I'd likely have excess skin. He also said I could do a full TT, but that that it would it would be overkill. I chose the mini TT. Now I wish I would have done more. I am looking at possibly going back to get the top corrected. I would appreciate HONEST feedback. I'm feeling confused and concerned.

I think I understand why you feel the top doesn't look that great. I have a feeling I'll probably think the same when I have mine done. However, trust us ladies when we say you look fantastic. It may not seem to you that you're flat enough, but it looks really good - I'm hoping I look like you when I'm done! Plus, I would assume you're still swollen? Give it a few months. Take this with a grain of salt though as I have yet to do mine!

Thank you all! It's that nagging doublt of 'woulda/shoulda/ coulda'. It's hard to see the top I'd not like the bottom but I can see it. Thanks so much for the comments ~ it makes me feel better on decision!

I understand that you woulda/shoulda/coulda gotten an improved upper abdomen if you had gone with a full. But I think you really honestly look perfect AND since you were a great candidate for a mini TT, you are able to enjoy what I personally think is the biggest benefit of all: A NATURAL LOOK. Your BB is still your own, your body looks amazing, but REAL. You just deleted that one flaw. I personally think that having that natural, cute BB is TOTALLY worth missing out on a bit of improvement in your upper abdomen. After my mini TT, my belly isn't as flat as thee full TT girls' bellies, but I LOVE how natural I look. I am thrilled to not have messed with my BB; I really think I would have regretted messing with my BB. I feel natural and feminine in a bikini. Rather than a tummy that says, "Tummy tuck!", you have a tummy that says, "Holy moly! She has kids and still looks that great?!" You have a VERY low scar. It looks fantastic. In time, it will fade and you can hide it in the teeniest bikini. I hope you decide to love your results because from what I see in pics, WOW! :)
