How long after hernia removal surgery do I have to wait before I can have a tummy tuck?

August 22, 2015
Asked By:rosegatica1 in Irvine, CA

I got a hernia right where my c-section incision is and I want to get a tummy tuck. I had my surgery on July 30th, and they went in where my c-section scar is. I'd like to get one asap while my baby is small, he's 5 and a half months old. Please advise. Thanks.
