Message from Dr. Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS

Recovery is individual—follow your surgeon’s instructions closely. Doing so supports proper healing and helps reduce the risk of complications.


Will my stomach be flatter after hernia repair?

Hernia repair surgery aims to fix the hernia and strengthen the abdominal wall—not to create cosmetic changes. Some patients may notice a flatter abdomen after recovery, but the main goal is functional improvement and preventing recurrence. Discuss your expectations with your surgeon before surgery.


How long is hernia operation?

Most hernia repair surgeries take about 1–2 hours, depending on the type, size, and surgical technique. More complex or open procedures may take longer. Extra time is needed for preparation and recovery. Your surgeon can provide a more precise estimate for your case.
