Common Complications for a Diastasis Repair Via Mini-tummy Tuck? Are there any complications caused by a diastasis abdomen condition, and if so, is a mini tummy tuck the only corrective option I have?

A: Diastasis Recti, Tummy Tuck

Diastasis, or separation, of the rectus abdominis muscles (the six pack) is a common condition after pregnancy or large weight gain and has no medical consequences other than a rounder abdomen. It is usually repaired during a tummy tuck to get a flatter younger looking contour for the abdomen. It is uncommon now to do mini tucks because the full tuck gives so much better overall results. You would really need to see a board certified Plastic Surgeon to examine you and give you the options that would help you meet your goals.
