Liposuction and Diastasis Recti for loose skin?

January 8, 2022
Asked By:kcast012 in Tustin, California

I have always gained weight/fat in my stomach. After two pregnancies I may have some diastasis recti, but it is nowhere near the severity I’ve seen in most photos. Will I be OK with just lipo and no tummy tuck? Also will I have a lot of loose skin? Some loose skin is ok and my stomach does not need to be 100% flat flat, I don’t mind. I would just prefer to do lipo and no tummy tuck if I can get away with it
