Every person has weak spots in the abdominal wall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of these weak points in the connective tissue is the navel. The abdominal wall is constantly exposed to high pressure, which increases significantly when lifting loads, coughing or sneezing. The abdominal wall also has to withstand high pressure during pregnancy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
An umbilical hernia occurs when the connective tissue around the navel is too weak to give in to the pressure in the abdominal cavity. A gap (hernial orifice) forms in the abdominal wall through which the peritoneum protrudes into a so-called hernial sac. Under certain circumstances, parts of the intestine can also protrude into this hernial sac. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Beauty Concepts are designed to help you keep track:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Below, you'll learn more about umbilical hernia surgery and possible alternatives or additions. You'll also find useful complementary treatments and surgeries...<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will receive objective and honest information about all details regarding the effectiveness and duration of the possible planned operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With every operation, patients take certain risks: possible complications are discussed honestly and options for avoiding them are presented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most common questions is about the cost of breast lift surgery. Beauty Concepts provides transparent information about a reasonable budget and the cost of the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n

Should I have an umbilical hernia have surgery at all?<\/strong><\/p>\n
An umbilical hernia does not usually go away on its own. The hernia gap does not get smaller. Once it reaches a certain size and is under a certain amount of strain, the intestine can protrude through the hernia gap and cause problems that may even require emergency surgery. It is therefore better to repair the umbilical hernia in a well-planned manner (and possibly combined with a tummy tuck or liposuction) than to wait too long.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n

Up to a certain size, umbilical hernias can be repaired with simple sutures.<\/p>\n
From a certain size onwards, the use of a net makes sense.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n

Logically, the combination of an umbilical hernia operation with a tummy tuck or liposuction is also a good option<\/p>\n

facts<\/strong><\/h3>\n
An umbilical hernia can affect anyone. In addition to being overweight, risk factors include significant weight loss (and therefore often patients who are planning a tummy tuck) and intense physical exertion (e.g. pregnancy) as well as a predisposition to the firmness of the tissue.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\n
