Hi I'm considering a Diastasis repair with hernia repair and tummy tuck. Have any of you surgeons ever seen this crooked and line before surgery and feel confident it could be fixed and straight again? Thank you

Answer: Uneven abdomen correction. There are a number of possibilities as to why your midline of your abdomen looks slightly off. Your diastasis or your hernia may be causing this. Also, nobody’s umbilicus is exactly in the midline, it is usually slightly to either side just as it can be slightly higher or slightly lower in different people.An in person examination will help determine exactly what your issue is. An abdominoplasty with correction of your diastasis and repair of your hernia as well as some liposuction should help to smooth and flatten your abdomen, narrow your waistline and improve the midline of your abdomen. See a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation. Best wishes.

Answer: Scoliosis and Tummy tuck Scoliosis is a very common feature we find among people and you must acknowledge that will not be fixed with surgery. Your Tummy tuck must be adjusted to your scoliosis and your abdomen will appear to be more, also during surgery it will be needed to get fixed the position of the belly button and the midline. Be encouraged!! Dr. Cárdenas
