[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Full tummy tuck recovery is tough, OP.  If you can, have your surgeon just remove the excess tissue and fat - not go into the abdominal wall.  Mine was willing to do that but Covid intervened and I gave up.  I wouldn't do a full tummy tuck.  There's a lot of info out there on the internet.  Most surgeons want to do the full because it's more money to them.  do you research first.[/quote]

OP here. May I ask the surgeon who agreed to do this? I thought that was all I needed too (mini tummy tuck) but ll 3 of the docs I saw recommended the whole shebang. I’d love to talk to someone who has recommended less. I know everyone’s body is different.[/quote]

I also just had a scar revision, which eliminated the C section shelf but is MUCH easier to recover from. One hour, local anesthesia, felt better after a couple days. I did take it easy for 6 weeks so that it could heal properly but I felt fine.

I had to push the surgeon to do it (he wanted to do a tummy tuck and said I would still have a shelf.) I just know the scar revision would fix th problem, so I held my ground. I'm thin and healthy so I know it was just a scar thing. He even made me sign something saying I was refusing his recommended  tummy tuck. But he did what I wanted and even he said that it looks great.
