Is it bad to get tummy tuck muscle repair corset having mild rectal prolapse, cystocele, rectocele, uterine prolapses all mild?

Question

Miguel Mota, MD · Answer

A TT tightens the abdominal wall. This in turn increases intra-abdominal pressure. Will the increased pressure make these issues worse? Maybe, maybe not. But these conditions tend to get worse with time. Regardless of a Tummy Tuck.

To answer your question.... You could have it done but you shouldn’t, not yet. Please treat everything before your Tummy Tuck. If not, they will all get worse, either because of the TT or because of the natural evolution of your condition.

Best of luck,
Dr. Miguel Mota

Abdominoplasty, which tightens the fascia, can increase the abdominal pressure, which could possibly make rectal prolapse, cystolcele, rectocele and uterine prolapse more severe.

I have never heard of a tummy tuck m  sad king those other issue worse, but I suppose it could. A lot depends on how bad those other issue are. Also those are conditions that could tend to worsen with or without a tummy tuck and just with the passage of time. You can always opt for the skin only portion of the tummy tuck.

Dear Danielalove,
tummy tuck shold have no negative effect on your medical conditions. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
