Dear gmaof4,generally speaking, it is possible to remove sutures from diastasis recti repair. I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
Rectus plication could be reversed by removing those sutures that were placed to repair the diastasis. A lot would depend on how long it's been since your procedure. I would suggest a full workup by a gastroenterologist prior to undergoing this procedure.
