I have to agree with Dr. Cambre's excellent answer. I would just like to add that many laser liposuction docs are not plastic surgeons. I see ladies over and over that go get Smartlipo (or the equivalent) done somewhere else and then are unhappy with the results because truly they needed a tummy tuck.
I also see many ladies who come into my office initially requesting Smartlipo when they need a tummy tuck. My advice would be to go see a doctor (plastic surgeon preferably) who performs all of these procedures. If he only offers Smartlipo, then you will probably be offered that procedure. Go see someone who can evaluate your abdominal wall and give you an honest, thorough recommendation.
A diastasis is never repaired or improved with liposuction of any type.
