My board certified plastic surgeon has recommended both anterior and posterior repairs via a component Seperation technique for my Diastasis recti. How is this different from a standard repair? Also, can this be done without mesh because I am allergic? Will it hold? Thanks
Answer: Component separation I see no need for either component separation or mesh in tummy tucks I have performed. They may have their place in a severely stretched out tummy with a true hernia, but those cases are not the typical tummy tuck. Component separation and mesh are used in really bad reconstructive cases but not in the routine case.

Answer: Component separation Component separation is a technique utilized to allow the muscle wall to be sutured back in the midline. A standard diastasis doesn't typically require this to be performed and the muscle edges can be brought back together without much difficulty. If you a severe diastasis or a hernia this technique can be useful. Mesh is typically used as additional support over the repair, but is not usually necessary, adds expense and is a foreign body that could cause problems down the road.without pictures, a definitive answer is hard to provide with any accuracy.good luck!
