Weight Loss Surgery
Obesity is a life-threatening disease affecting millions of Americans. About 31.4% of adults in the United States are obese.
If you are 100 lbs overweight and other weight loss treatments haven't worked, the LAP-BAND® System may be for you. It's a minimally invasive, safe and effective weight loss surgery using the most advanced adjustable gastric banding system.
The LAP-BAND® Adjustable Gastric Banding System is the first U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved adjustable gastric band for use in weight reduction. To date, this simple reversible surgically implanted device has been successfully used in more than 300,000 procedures worldwide. The LAP-BAND® System is considered safer and less invasive than gastric bypass, as there is no stomach cutting, stapling or intestinal re-routing..
