I’m 6 months post op. Pics are in the morning. When I suck in a bit I’m completely flat, when I relax completely my stomach is a bit rounded. I can feel the line down my diastasis (I’m assuming dissolving stitches or scar tissues etc). Do women sometimes experience this? Does a little sticking out when relaxed mean my muscle repair failed?

Answer: Normal for tummy to pooch out a little bit after tummy tuck Thank you very much for your question, in the front photo your surgery looks very good, however in the side photo I observed changes that are more suggestive to body posture and not to surgery, I suggest a physical examination where your doctor can palpate if the dystasis of your rectus abdominis muscles is completely corrected. It helps a lot to start exercising to tone the abdominal wall, but above all to correct body posture. Greetings from Colombia

Answer: Tummy tuck with mesh Your results are typical of a tummy tuck. The technique I use allows placement of mesh reinforcement that creates a more hourglass figure by compressing the abdominal wall resulting in early satiety and helps maintain a reduced weight.
