Bariatric surgery is an operation that helps you lose weight by making changes to your digestive system. Some types of bariatric surgeries make your stomach smaller, allowing you to eat and drink less at one time and making you feel full sooner. Other bariatric surgeries also change your small intestine-the part of your body that absorbs calories and nutrients from foods and beverages.
Revision of Previous Bariatric Surgery - LAP-BAND / Gastric Bypass Revision - Revisional Surgery for Weight Loss. If you are experiencing problems of any kind, including post-surgical complications, unsatisfactory weight loss or weight regain, you may benefit from revision. Sleeve gastrectomy may be a good option because it does not involve the implantation of a foreign object in the body, and it does not need adjustment or filling after surgery.
Laparoscopic gastric bypass or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, are the most commonly performed types of obesity surgery in the U.S. The ultimate goal of any bariatric procedure is to reduce the patient's calorie intake and stimulate weight loss. There are many reasons to undergo a laparoscopic gastric bypass procedure.
