Already have muscles tightened because of hernia, questions!

Hi, I'm new to the plastics forum. I have lost around 160lbs give or take according to the day of the week! Last year I had my hernia repaired and they tightened my muscles because I had multiple hernias down the entire incision. So when I have plastics I won't need the muscles tightened. I'm hoping this will make a difference in price.

My surgeon is going to submit to my insurance for my panni but I'm going to see about also getting a TT and mons. I also have huge love handles and a huge deflated muffin top. So he will have to cut around the sides some.

I don't know all the lingo but hope that someone understands what I'm talking about.

With having the muscles tightened will this cut down on the cost of TT? How long did you guys have to stay in the hospital afterward? I know a few who went home the same day. I still have fat in my stomach area, so will I need to ask for lipo or is that included in the TT? Thanks in advance and I plan on reading old posts to get some answers to questions I may have ask or forgotten to ask.
