When do you need Surgery? Post Pregnancy Belly Fat or C Section Surgery Guide

Описание: If you're dealing with a stubborn post-pregnancy belly and wondering whether you actually need surgery, this video will help you understand the facts clearly and calmly. I’m Dr. Daniel Serralta, a colorectal surgeon in Dubai, and in this video I’m breaking down what really happens to your abdominal muscles after pregnancy, why the belly sometimes doesn’t go back to normal, and when diastasis recti becomes a medical, not cosmetic, issue.

Most women experience some level of muscle separation during pregnancy. For many, it heals naturally. For others, it doesn’t. My goal in this video is to help you understand why, and guide you toward the right next step.

We’ll talk about:

How to check yourself for diastasis recti
When physical therapy works (and when it doesn’t)
The exact signs that surgery may be necessary
What abdominoplasty with rectus repair actually involves
Recovery time, risks, and cost
When you should absolutely wait before considering surgery

My approach is simple: no fear, no pressure, and no unrealistic promises. Just medical facts, explained in a way that helps you make an informed and confident decision about your body.

If you’re less than a year postpartum, if your separation is mild, or if you’re still improving with physiotherapy, surgery may not be the answer. But if you have a large gap, hernias, long-term symptoms, or no improvement after proper conservative treatment, it may be time to get evaluated.

Your body has been through a lot. You deserve clear information, not confusion.
