Should I have a vertical incision done for my tummy tuck?

I'm going to have a tummy tuck in about a month and a half. Two out of the three surgeons I've seen recommended a vertical incision to tighten the upper ab; the other said he could do it without. I'd much rather avoid the long scar from the vertical. How do I choose? Has anyone done it without the upper incision and been satisfied?
