Hi Char,

There are many types of tummy tucks, and it all depends on how much skin/fat, etc needs to be removed to obtain the best result. 

Mini tummy tuck
Large tummy tuck
extended tummy tuck
extended tummy tuck with anchor cut (vertical cut)
Lower body lift or circumferential belt lipectomy

These could also include or not include muscle repair or muscle tightening.

I know this list doesn't include all of them, but these are the ones I could think of.

Hope that helps!

Talk to the Doctor and discuss your needs and concerns.   Based on what are your needs and the Doc will describe the options that are best for you. 

Once you get your 1st consultation under your belt you will have a better idea.  Some PS's may give you video presentation and others may give you a quick diagram to help your understand.
