Is there a difference between the terms muscle repair and internal corset?

EricaPaige84
I’ve heard many women talk about having muscle repair done during their tummy tucks and I’ve heard the term internal corset used in blogs and videos. Just wondering if everyone is referring to the same thing or if there is a difference. Thanks!
