I am 175cm and 58kg (below my pre pregnancy weight). I am 6 months postpartum and would wait until a year to have surgery. I am seeing a physio and plan to be in the best possible shape for surgery. I have a low of functional issues like back pain and a weak core and I hate how pregnant I look at the end of the day. My diastasis stretches from top to bottom and I have mild skin sagging. I do not want to float my belly button because I think it is low enough as is. What tummy tuck can I get?

Dear lasdlove,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
