Is it possible to have liposuction after having hernia mesh surgery?

Yes, it's possible to have liposuction after a hernia mesh repair surgery. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

If you have healed for several months and no longer have a hernia, surgery may be reasonable.Liposuction can be performed provided the repair of the hernia is still intact.  This area will be an area of more scar.  However, this will not present a challenge for an experienced surgeon.  Find the board certified plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials (certification, education, training, experience, favorable patient reviews) who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year.  Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Yes, it is possible to have liposuction after this type of surgery, but your plastic surgeon should know where the hernia was located and how the repair was done prior to proceeding with liposuction. This may dictate how he or she approaches your problem areas of fat.
