The Obesity Lap Band can be placed inside the body using a miniature tool called a laparoscope. This requires only tiny incisions. You'll have less risk of complications, less pain and less bleeding with the minimally invasive Obesity Lap Band procedure. The risks are lower in comparison to other procedures like gastric bypass. Depending on how you heal, it usually takes a week to get back to normal following the Obesity Lap Band procedure.

The average weight loss in the year after an Obesity  Lap Band procedure is about 40 percent of excess weight. The Obesity Lap Band procedure is reversible. You won't need to be concerned about your gastrointestinal tract becoming permanently altered through cutting and stapling. The silicone Obesity Lap Band is placed around your stomach and tightened by filling with saline solution. An access port will be discreetly placed under the skin during your Obesity Lap Band procedure. This will make it easy for your doctor to adjust the tightness of the band over time.
