How much wrinkling and loose skin will remain after umbilical hernia and diastasis repair surgery? (photo)

Fitness mom 5
Prior to the surgery I only had a little loose skin near my belly button when I leaned forward. Im 5'1 - 91lbs. I had first been told that I only needed the hernia and diastasis repair and then after the surgery my Dr told me that I should have had a tummy tuck. I am very depressed to be left with my stomach looking this way when it was smooth prior to the surgery. . I fear that I will be needing a surgery to correct
