Benefits
Discover the benefits of SILS surgery
Single Port Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) is an innovative and pioneering new way of carrying out surgical procedures so that patients are left with virtually no scar.
Our experienced team of surgeons at The Wellington Hospital is now able to carry out a range of operations through a single, tiny incision in the belly button. The small scar from the operation is hidden inside the belly button, leaving the visible skin around it unmarked and untouched. This minimally-invasive approach to surgery means that patients spend less time in hospital - most procedures are performed as day cases and do not require an overnight stay - and experience less pain and discomfort afterwards because only a single, small incision has been made.
Recovery time following surgery should also be quicker. Our team of consultant surgeons are world leaders in this field and are able to carry out an increasing number of procedures this way including gall bladder and appendix removals, hernia repair and colon and stomach surgery.
