Evolving Past Lap Band in Weight Loss Surgery
Gastric band or “Lap-Band” surgery, was once the third most popular bariatric surgery worldwide. However, many studies have shown that more than half of the gastric bands are removed due to inadequate weight loss or complications.
Advancements in minimally invasive procedures and a dedicated care team have helped the effectiveness of bariatric surgery evolve significantly through procedures such as gastric bypass surgery and sleeve gastrectomy.
