For some women, pregnancy, weight changes, and aging can stretch the abdominal wall and create diastasis recti, leaving the abdomen looking rounded even at a healthy weight.
In this case, addressed the underlying support with a tummy tuck, diastasis repair, and mesh reinforcement for a smoother, more supported abdominal contour.
The key is understanding what is actually creating the fullness: skin, fat, muscle separation, or a combination of all three.
Not sure what may be contributing to yours? Ask us your tummy tuck questions below or schedule a consultation with Dr. Whitney Burrell.
