Most people believe abdominoplasty surgery is purely to address loose skin. However, one of the top concerns of Dr. Whidden’s patients, is a persistently “domed” abdomen following pregnancy.
Pregnancy can stretch the fascia that supports your abdominal muscles, and because this tissue is not elastic, no amount of core training can fully fix it. During your abdominoplasty, Dr. Whidden repairs the muscle separation (diastasis) as well as tightens the fascia often leading to a stronger core and reduced back pain for many women. As you can see from this example, this also creates a tighter, flatter looking tummy.
