Why did you choose the anchor cut? It did not look like you had that much excess around your mid-section. (I chose not to have the anchor cut.)

Laura did you have a LBL or TT?  I had the anchor cut also, I was told by all three surgeons I consulted with the anchor would give me better results with a TT and it did give me good results.  I have talked to others that didn't have anchor with TT and many wish they had. 

I have a couple of friends that had the LBL and their upper abdomen is flat.....my upper wasn't too bad but I don't think it would have gotten flat without the anchor.

Hi Laura - I actually did have a lot of excess skin above my belly button. Unfortunately, I did not post a forward facing before pic because I took them all naked and couldn't figure out how to black out the pubic area. I will try again
My surgeon said that was the only way to git rid of that fat above my belly button and trusted his judgement.
