it looks indeed like you’re a good candidate for a tummy tuck, although there seems not to be a tremendous amount of skin excess. This means that if your surgeon wants to eliminate all the stretch marks below your belly button, there is a chance the scar will come quite high above your pubis.
Make sure you discuss this with your surgeon before the surgery to avoid disappointment.
Good luck!

it is not uncommon for the lips to swell quite impressively after a hyaluronic acid injection. This is probably mostly due to the trauma of the injection and should go away in a few days.
If after a week the lips are still grossly swollen, go see your doctor, he knows what he has done.
If worst comes to worse hyaluronic acid can always be neutralized with hyaluronidase.

You need to know that bigger implants
weigh more (possible discomfort when running)
are more likely to result in ptosis (hanging)
are more likely to give decreased sensitivity
distort the natural breast shape more
make you look “bigger”
If taking all this into account, you still want to go for the look you have…
