THE PROBLEM
Common hernia repair is performed using a flat hernia mesh, which is implanted into the body to “patch” the hernia defect. This is a static repair solution, which stands in conflict with one of the most dynamic parts of the human body and is known to create significant scar tissue.
Open Onlay Mesh and Laparoscopic Mesh Surgery, the two most commonly used methods for inguinal hernia repair, are both associated with patients developing long-term, hernia mesh related chronic pain in
18% of open inguinal hernia onlay mesh repair patients1
6% of laparoscopic hernia mesh repair patients patients1

ProFlor is a dynamic hernia implant, which moves and contracts with the body’s muscle structure, and has shown to enable regrowth of significant healthy muscle tissue.
Studies show that ProFlor is a superior hernia repair solution to open, onlay mesh inguinal hernia surgery:
