Open Mesh Hernia Repair

At London Hernia, our leading experts provide first class care and use of open mesh repair to ensure speedy and effective recovery.

London Hernia offers the latest techniques, expert private surgical care and enhanced recovery at competitive prices whilst avoiding long waiting lists.

Open mesh or tension free mesh is an advanced technique pioneered by London Hernia Consultants and has been perfected over thousands of successful operations.

What Is Open Mesh?

This method of Hernia repair involves positioning a piece of fine mesh at the opening of the incision, allowing the body to heal naturally around it.

The body senses the presence of the mesh and creates fibrous tissue to grow around and interlace the mesh increasing its strength so that the weakness that caused the hernia is eliminated. It acts almost as a steel plate inside the abdominal wall.

Why choose Open Mesh?

Short operation with minimal, if any, pain
Can be performed under local anaesthetic
Rapid recovery, can go home same day
Reliable against a possible re-occurrence
No issues for older patients
