The Hernia Surgery Procedure
Procedure time varies based on the complexity and technique used.
Post-operative Care and Recovery
Recovery time varies and depends on the type of hernia and surgical approach. Most patients after surgery can return to normal activities within 1-2 weeks for laparoscopic repairs and 3-6 weeks for open surgeries.
Not always, but mesh is commonly used, especially for larger hernias. It provides additional support and reduces the risk of recurrence. Our surgeons use the latest biocompatible mesh materials when indicated.
While recurrence is possible, modern surgical techniques have significantly reduced this risk. At CARE, our experienced surgeons use advanced methods to minimise the chance of hernia recurrence.
