Asked By:Tasteful808683 in Kansas

I’m a 38 yo mom of 3, youngest is 2. I exercise 4-5 x week, cardio, strength, pilates and follow a healthy diet working with a nutritionist. I can’t seem to tighten my abdomen this time around and the linea nigra hasn’t gone away. I’ve had a few consultations and they all agree I have a mild umbilical hernia and mild diastasis recti around the belly button. Recommendations vary from lipo to mini to full TT. Concerns are scars, belly button and natural look. What would you recommend and why?
