So how do I know If I require muscle repair or just a panectomy?
Answer: Abdominal muscle repair after hysterectomy I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Abdominal muscle tightening Consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and review of your op report should give you some answers. Panniculectomy is simply removal of excess skin without muscle tightening.

Answer: Repair of diastasis recti Hi, jordashjAlthough your gynecologist might have "tightened ab muscle as much as he could," the primary focus of hysterectomy is not tightening your core muscle. Ob/Gyns are not trained to perform abdomen contouring procedures as plastic surgeons are. Please consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to learn about your options.Best wishes.
