Do I have distasis recti? Is liposuction the right treatment for my stomach? (Photo)

May 15, 2023
Asked By:jadproudmama in Atlanta, Georgia

I’ve always had a more athletic build since as long as I can remember! I have 3 kids now. They were spaced out every 4-5 years. My last I believe changed my body, to the point my stomach isn’t as tight as it used to be and I also have some saggy skin above my belly button! I was looking into getting liposuction thinking this should solve my issue with my stomach but I’m not sure if I have distasis recti? I’m my same pre pregnancy weight but abdomen still is flabby. Which is unusual for me.
