Can a tummy tuck be performed without muscle repair?

Can a tummy tuck be performed without muscle repair? I did a diastasis self-test and there seems to be minimal separation. I am a fitness trainer and have strong abdominal muscles. My stomach was completely flat until I turned 50. I'd like to have excess fat and a moderate amount of loose skin removed. Does a TT without muscle repair still involve DRAINS?
