I hate it. But I’ve had a lot of surgery (non comestic) in this area so looking at non surgical options. Fat freezing ? Cool sculpt? Can I just stick my stomach in a bucket of ice every night - would that work?

Arg better start saving now then! I lost loads of weight so it's the wrinkly skin I'm left with now whereas last year it was fat + skin and was far less wrinkled looking if that makes sense! Now it's like a deflated balloon.

Nowhere in scotland does a full tummy tuck for 2k. I live here and had a tummy tuck 4 months ago. Lipo can be from 2k but tummy tucks are not. Mini tummy tucks at about 4k but not suitable for most people.

@wizzywig

£2000?! Where? I paid £6000 in a UK hospital a few years back
Maybe I've seen prices from £2k then. Looked at a few Scottish clinics

Tummy tucks can be 2-3k in places like lithuania etc.
In the uk it varies from 6-9k

@Maydaybankholiday where could you get one for £2k?? Shock

My friend just had a mini tuck and it was £4.5k

OP - I am looking into vaser lipo as I don't want any option involving general anaesthetic - got a consultation tomorrow so will post back!

After 5 c sections I'm not getting a tummy tuck either.
Mine is like a small bump now I am at a low BMI but it will never truly disappear

Constant fungal infections. Nothing strong enough to help. “We could find an anti fungal strong enough to kill all fungal infections but it would also kill all life on earth “

So I live with constant fungal infections in the folds

Mine hangs out the leg holes of my big knickers. Sad

If it is skin, there is little you can do apart from cut it off.

I have one. I just tuck it into my big knickers.

Not sure but I'm planning a tummy tuck in a few years for mine. Think it's around the £2000 mark so will save that up
