II have been told I will need to have the muscles repaired had gastric bypass and have lost 120 pounds. I am about 40 pounds from my goal weight. My bmi will be 29-30. A previous dr told me that there is likely fat underneath and on top of the Diastisis recti. If I have a mommy makeover, can lipo be done under the Diastisis recti before it is repaired ?
