One of the many advantages to the Lap Band procedure is that the band is adjustable by having a short office visit. Having the band adjusted at a later time in the doctor's office allows the individual to deflate or inflate the band as needed for them to be able to control the amount of food that they consume.
When a patient needs to have the Lap Band adjusted, it can be done through a simple procedure where a saline solution is inserted into the Lap Band itself. The surgeon does this by easily inserting a saline-filled needle into the skin and then into the reservoir portion of the Lap Band. This adjustment can be performed for women who are seeking to become pregnant or individuals who wish to lose additional weight.
Each individual who has Lap Band surgery must remember that there is no guarantee of weight loss and they must follow dietary recommendations and follow up as instructed. Being active and exercise will also assist the individual in their weight loss goals.
More Lap Band surgeries are done successfully with TopSurgeons than any other provider in California.
