36 have 3 children. Peo often asked if I am preg. I went to a consu. and I was told that I needed a TT because I have DR. She didn't touch me or x-rays so how would she know I have that?I have no scars or stretch mark so I really didn't want huge scar from hip to hip. Do you think she told me this because the tummy tuck might be easier for her to do? Is there anything else I can do to flatten my stomach? And if I do have a muscle separation why do I look so flat at times like in the mornings?
Answer: 3 pregnancies equals diastasis recti Dear proudof3,After 3 full term pregnancies it is very common to have a stretching, or diastasis of the abdominal muscles. During a tummy tuck operation those muscles are stitched back to their pre-stretched position. The reason for your abdominal contour changing through the day is that the internal organs rest back into your abdominal cavity while you are sleeping. When you are up and about your organs push out more to the front and create the bulging. Abdominoplasty surgery is what you need, but you might be able to improve the bulging with some abdominal muscle strengthening and exercise. Good luck!

Answer: Diastasis? Everyone looks better in the morning before you put food and drink into your stomach. In terms of diastasis, it is obvious from the photos. This is an issue we deal with daily so please give the surgeon credit for some diagnostic skills. Btw, x-rays are of absolutely no use in this regard. The absence of stretch marks externally does not mean that your internal musculature is intact. To the extent that you feel that the plastic surgeon you consulted did not spend enough time with you in consultation, see another with whom you may be more comfortable.

Answer: Diastsasis Somethings need to be examined in person for diagnosis, but it seems from your pictures that you do indeed have a diastases. The only way to treat this with an excellent result is to tighten the muscles via a tummy tuck. If performed correctly, the vast majority of patients consider the scar fantastic trade-off for the dramatic improvement in contour. The scar fades substantially with time, and you are left only with the beautiful result.Best of luck!

Answer: Diasthesis Recti Thanks for reaching out. He doesn't fact look like you have diastases recti. The reason why it is flatter in the morning then in the afternoon is because after the day has gone by and the pressure from the inside of your stomach mounts all day long it continues to stretch. tell me tuck would so these muscles together and make them flat it from the inside and then skin excision can flatten the skin on the outside. I hope this helps :)
