Is biological mesh recommended to repair diastasis recti? (Photo)

Mesh is not necessary.  Diastasis is a separation not an actual opening which is then called a hernia.  With smaller hernias, a simple repair would be fine as well and mesh is not necessary.  In a tummy tuck, the muscles are almost always repaired by placing either long lasting sutures or permanent sutures from the xyphoid (breast bone) all the way down towards the pubis.  I like to do this two times for added reinforcement.I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your surgical options.

Hello,Diastasis recti, no matter how dramatic, needs no mesh. Be sure your surgeon is an ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeon with at least a decade of experience. Best of luck!
