Can Laser Lipo to Stomach Cause a Hernia?

April 26, 2010
Asked By:Mel2010 in Home

I had laser lipo to my stomach and now have a hernia right above my belly button. I feel this was caused by the lipo procedure but my plastic surgeon said the hernia was always there but is now showing because I hardly have any fat on my stomach. He also say she cant fix it and I need to go to a general surgeon. I feel he made a mistake but does not want to own up to it. Could this be true?
