We specialize in the treatment and surgery of rectus diastasis.

We are committed to improving your health; rectus diastasis surgery can save your life. This condition primarily refers to a situation where the rectus muscles of the abdomen, which are the main muscles located at the front of the abdomen, separate more than normal. Typically, this occurs due to the weakness or stretching of the tissues that hold the muscles together along the midline of the abdomen.

¿Who can suffer from rectus diastasis?

Rectus diastasis can occur in men, women, and children, but it is more common in women during pregnancy or after giving birth. It can also affect individuals with obesity, those who repeatedly lift heavy objects, or those who perform inadequate exercises for the abdominal muscles.

¿Is rectus diastasis surgery your best option?

It is important to consult a specialist who can assess and monitor this condition. Treatment may vary depending on your doctor's recommendations, and a tailored treatment plan will be provided for you. In some cases, it may be necessary to undergo rectus diastasis surgery, a surgical procedure that will help correct the problem and preserve your health. Some complications of not treating rectus diastasis may include:

1. Weakness and Dysfunction of the Abdominal Wall

Rectus diastasis can weaken the abdominal muscles and affect the stability of the spine and pelvis. This can lead to posture problems, back pain, and difficulty performing physical activities.

2. Hernias:

The separation of the rectus muscles can create an opening in the abdominal wall, increasing the risk of developing hernias. A hernia occurs when internal organs, such as the intestine, protrude through a weakness in the abdominal wall, which can be painful and may require surgery to repair.

3. Aesthetic Changes in the Abdomen:

Rectus diastasis can cause a bulging or protruding appearance in the abdomen, even after weight loss. This can affect confidence in body image.

It is important to schedule an appointment for an accurate diagnosis and an individualized treatment plan. Early and appropriate treatment of rectus diastasis can help prevent long-term complications and improve the function and appearance of the abdomen.
