Anyone had just a lower tummy tuck? I think that's all I might be looking into. Also how much did it cost you and how long did it take to get back to working out? Thanks. You know that lower saggy skin can be a bit bothersome and we might be in the position to handle the cost. Depending on how much. thanks.

I june of this year I saw two plastic surgeons for a quote. I have a c-section scar that goes north/south and I also have an appendectomy scar. So the skin puckers and in some places is trapped between scars. It looks pretty bad. Both suggested I'd be a good candidate for the tummy tuck. One quoted 10,000 (he wanted to do TT then lypo) the other quoted 7,500 for just a TT. (This is in SW Florida)
Since the quote I've watched my eating and been a more consistent with exercise (cardio and weights). I've lost a few inches and some fat in this area. But I'll still need the surgery to get rid of the scars (both said they'd have to fashion a new belly button - I found that incredible). I'm still contemplating, but just have to save up the $$.
Do your internet research. There are some great sites with before and after pics and price estimates. Research the docs too. Make sure doc is board certified.
I hope this was helpful. Good luck to you.
