Moving Past Obesity with a Gastric Band
At a center for weight loss surgery, patients can meet with a qualified weight loss surgeon and receive directed counseling toward surgical weight loss opportunities. Surgery always carries risks, and patients should carefully review all information about the surgery and the pre- and post-operative requirements before submitting to any course of action. Qualified weight loss specialists can assist patients with their weight loss options and can help select the best and safest approach to treating weight loss.
Surgery can be an option for persons who are obese with a BMI over 35 or 40. The problem for patients with a high BMI is that other medical issues typically arise as side effects, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, GERD and not to mention the lifestyle impacts the condition can create. Obesity weight loss surgery is targeted for patients who cannot otherwise loose the weight necessary to increase their health.
A popular obesity weight loss surgery is a laparoscopic gastric band. The procedure is performed at a center for weight loss surgery by creating a small surgical incision in the belly button (laparoscopically). A silicone ring is then placed around the tube or mouth of the stomach. Attached to the silicone ring is a cord that is placed near the stomach. Silicone is injected in the tube, which in turn inflates the ring and creates tension on the mouth of the stomach. Continued adjustments can increase or decrease the amount of food that can pass into the stomach.
After the surgery, a weight loss surgeon can make additional adjustments to the ring during an office visit at a center for weight loss surgery. When the desired weight has been achieved, the laparoscopic gastric band can be removed. The stomach is not cut, modified or bypassed in any way, but the results of this procedure do create real weight loss for the patient because the total caloric intake is reduced.
