Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Gallbladder and diastasis recti issues. Can this prevent me from getting a tummy tuck? Should I do the TT
Two separate issues
Dec 1, 2023
These are two completely different issues that should be addressed separately. And the gallbladder absolutely be addressed first. Hopefully they can fix this laparoscopically. If you end up with a large right upper quadrant abdomen scar from a gallbladder removal, it can affect the ability to do a safe tummy tuck. Once you were well, healed and symptom-free, then I would advise the diastasis repaired with the tummy tuck.
Do you think, because of my spinal condition and pain, insurance would cover surgery for my diastasis rec
Insurance and Surgery
Sep 18, 2023
It is possible that they could cover this if they believe that it would fix your condition. However, I would find this to be unlikely as it is mostly a cosmetic procedure unless there’s also a hernia developing in the diastasis.
Are diastasis recti and hernias repaired by a general surgeon if a tummy tuck is not included?
Best options
Sep 18, 2023
A cosmetic general surgeon or Plastic Surgeon would be best to fix your concerns. The diastasis repair is best fixed at the time of an abdominoplasty and a multitude of problems can also be repaired from the pregnancy.
I am 59 years old, female. I have diastasis recti. Could laparoscopic surgery work for me?
Pros of Abdominoplasty
Sep 18, 2023
While you could use laparoscopy to repair the diastasis recti, it will likely leave the skin on the abdomen even more bunched up and loose. In almost all cases, it would be best fixed through an abdominoplasty. Here not only will the muscle repair be done, but also any hernias fixed and finally also removing the excess skin.
How much will a diastasis recti repair cost for someone in great shape and little body fat..?
Price Ranges
Sep 18, 2023
Depending on what state you live, you will see ranges of $6000 and up. But in most cases, this will only be the surgeons fees and will not include the operating room and anesthesia fees. You may find your cost totaling much closer to $10,000. As a pro tip, if you avoid the higher priced cities, you can find amazing surgeons in smaller towns with just as good results, for such a simple problem!
Middle of stomach sinking in around belly button after giving birth?
Sinking in around Belly Button
Sep 18, 2023
Yes, you are correct. The “sinking in” is from diastasis recti. As significant as yours is, it is very likely to have to be repaired along with an abdominoplasty. This will not only fix the extra and damage skin, but also the indentation in your abdomen.
Can't Do Plication with Ventral Hernia Repair?
Different options
Sep 18, 2023
While different surgeons may have different opinions, I have to strongly disagree with the one that you’ve been given. If you truly have a central ventral hernia, then when you repair the diastasis it will also fix the ventral hernia with it. Further, the better news is that it usually can be fixed without mesh and has a much less likelihood of recurrence.
