I had an inguinal hernia repaired with mesh, via laparoscopic repair about two months ago. I wanted to get cool sculpting done around my belly button. One of the small incisions is right next to my belly button. The hernia repair was much lower and in the area of where my thigh meets groin. When is it safe for me to get cool sculpting around my belly button?
