How much will a diastasis recti repair cost for someone in great shape and little body fat..? (Photo)

aya_papaya
I have a small "diastasis recti" after two children. How much would a simple repair cost? I am 29 years old and in great shape despite this. I have very little extra skin and hardly any body fat (12%). The gap itself is shallow and only about 1-2 fingers wide but I do not care for the appearance and so, am considering diastasis recti repair or perhaps just a few stitches to close the gap(?) I would like to know a rough estimate for this surgery or other possible options. Thank you!
