Hi! I am 5’6 and 138 pounds. I had twins 4 years ago and have diastasis recti that causes back pain and coning with a lot of daily tasks. I do not have tons and tons of extra skin though. Is a full tummy tuck still the best option?

Answer: Diastasis repair with or without abdominoplasty Thank you for the question. Without seeing your entire abdomen (especially lower), it is difficult to see if you are an abdominoplasty candidate or not. In my practice I do not repair diastasis alone without a tummy tuck but I do include the repair in your tummy tuck price quote. Good luck on your abdominoplasty journey.

Answer: Tummy tuck for Diastasis recti? Thank you for your question! When it comes to correcting diastasis recti, a full tummy tuck is often the best option. In order to effectively tighten the muscles back together, we (surgeon) need access to the entire abdominal wall, which a full tummy tuck allows.
