Have any of you fine ladies or gents gotten a mini tummy tuck? I am considering getting one. I didn't have as much to lose as others--but it's still not pretty. I am wondering if any of you got a mini tt and did you like it? Thanks!
And yes before you say anything--I know a full tummy tuck is better looking. I just want to know about personal experiences of mini tummy tucks :-). Thanks !

i had a mini. I lost about 25 poinds after having multiple children and had a full TT. After that I lost another 60 pounds and had another baby. Below my belly button is very tight and flat, Above still has some loose skin but not bad. With a mini they do not move the belly button nor do they tighten your muscle to bring in your waist. The recovery from the full TT was very rough. The mini wa nothing. I was up and doing things within days, including driving. If I was going for perfection I would have done another full TT. But if you are realistic and are willing to settle for some improvement, it is worth the mini.
I had a mini TT when I was 25 after 2 kids and I was super satisfied with the results. It even held up through massive weight changes.
Then I got pregnant with twins...and that just...well...you can imagine what that does to your belly. I just had a full TT and am DELIGHTED. The scar is the same, but this time they took in my waist by 4inches! So it really depends on if you have a muscle seperation or not.
The recovery from the mini was a breeze compared to the full TT.
