I've been diagnosed using a CT Scan with a very large midline hernia. I would like to have abdominplasty at the same time. 1. Will I be need to have 2 different surgeons? 2. Can you I have a mesh hernia repair and tummy tuck at the same time? 3. What should I look for in a surgeon that will do both?

Answer: Tummy Tuck and Gernia Repair Hernia repair and abdominoplasty can be performed at the same time; however, it depends on the scope of the facility. Consult with 3 board certified plastic surgeons to determine if both procedures can be performed together. Do not sacrifice the quality of either surgery by choosing a lesser surgery that claims he can do both.

Answer: Hernia repair Thank you for your question and I agree with Dr Morgan. Some plastic surgeons based on training will do both and others will ask a surgical colleague to helpDr Corbin
