I have no stretch marks and I have fairly tight skin. I have very severe diastasis. I'll be having a breast augmentation, and was wondering, is it possible to also have a Tummy Tuck done with the incision under the breasts, not from one side of the hip to the other?

Answer: Minimizing CombinationTummy Tuck and BA Scars Because you have tight skin rather than using the smaller breast scars to correct the diastasis recti (typically a bit worse below your belly button than above it, I would recommend using the tummy tuck scar as access to insert your breast implants thereby having no scars on your breasts. #Diastasisrepair#BAwithTT

Answer: A tummy tuck is rarely performed through an incision under the breasts.
The scars of this type of operation are usually unacceptable. It is occasionaly done in massive weight loss patients as a secondary procedure to an extended abdominoplasty. I personally have never used the approach in any other patients.

Answer: Reverse Tummy Tuck or Abdominoplasty Some people call this the reverse tummy tuck. It tends to leave a more visible scar then the coventional tummy tuck. The muscle repair cannot always be completed through the upper abdominal scar but it can be accomplished through limited pubic or umbilical scars.
