Before and after photos of thin women hard to find. Does thin connective tissue mean the abdomen will never be flat? (photo)

Asked By:mcpaemoller in Vancouver, BC

I am not overweight at all. I am having a hard time finding before and after photos of patients who had their hernia/diastasis recti fixed post babies. Also, can the fascia/connective tissue be tightened enough to hold the abdominal wall in again? Or if it is too thin will the abdominals still hang out even after the muscles are sewn back together?
