Hernia Surgery

Painful, uncomfortable hernias can often be debilitating. Once a hernia has occurred, surgery is the only method for repairing the damaged area.

While Lumin Bariatric provides both minimally invasive laparoscopic repairs as well as traditional open procedures for a variety of hernias, many can typically be treated with our advanced minimally invasive techniques.

Laparoscopic procedures use tiny incisions, generally leading to less pain, less scarring, less trauma to surrounding areas and shortened recovery times.

Some of our standard hernia procedures include:
