Yes, it is possible to have liposuction after hernia mesh repair surgery. For optimal results, I suggest considering a hi-definition procedure such as VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF and fat grafting to achieve maximum fat removal, skin tightening, contour, and definition. This combination can provide the most toned outcome. I recommend consulting with a hi-definition physique expert for a thorough evaluation.

Yes, it is possible to have liposuction after undergoing hernia repair surgery. However, it is crucial for your plastic surgeon to have detailed knowledge of the hernia location and the repair technique used before proceeding with liposuction. This information may influence the approach to address your specific areas of concern.

If you have healed for several months and no longer have a hernia, liposuction may be reasonable. Ensure the repair of the hernia is intact, and consult with an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon who performs liposuction procedures frequently. - [Doctor's Name]

Hello and thank you for your question. Yes, it is possible to undergo liposuction after a mesh hernia repair. However, an in-person consultation is necessary to evaluate your specific case and determine the suitability of the procedure for you. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with tools like the Crisalix system can assist in your decision-making process. I recommend finding a board-certified plastic surgeon whom you feel comfortable with. During a face-to-face meeting, be sure to ask all your questions and review before and after pictures of patients who have had similar procedures. Best of luck!
