Can you have a tummy tuck if you have multiple loops of unobstructed bowel? If so, can a surgeon fix it during a TT? (Photo)

Asked By:Elise0123 in Avon Park, Florida

I am a 31 yr old female, 5 ft 3 and about 110 pounds. I have had two c-sections. I have an umbilical hernia, diastasis recti and multiple loops of unobstructed bowel. I would like to get a tummy tuck to fix my hernia and diastasis recti but was wondering if a plastic surgeon would be able to fix the loops of bowel during the tummy tuck or would that be something I would need to fix prior to TT surgery? Thank you
