A hiatal hernia is not a problem with liposuction because it is internal. Umbilical hernias are an issue with liposuction because it involves the same area that is to be sculpted.
thank you for the question. The type of hernia that you were referring to is actually inside your abdomen between your stomach and esophagus. Therefore it does not affect your ability to have liposuction. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to see if you are a good candidate. Best of luck!
This type of hernia is actually around the esophagus near the diaphragm inside your body. Liposuction of stomach fat shouldn't pose an issue as long as you are otherwise healthy and any reflux issues from the hernia are under control. Good luck!
A hiatal hernia is due to a defect in the diaphragm which is the then muscle that wraps around the esophagus as it enters the stomach. The diaphragm separates the lungs (chest cavity) from the abdomen (digestive organs). Liposuction of the abdomen is much more superficial being between the skin and the abdominal muscles, so there won't be any problem having liposuction
Thank you for your question. Liposuction can be done when they have hiatal hernia. Liposuction is going to be on top of the muscle and hiatal hernia is internal. Please consult with a board certified PS of evaluation.
