Revising Bariatric Surgery

  • Gastric Bypass Revision Surgery – Many times gastric bypassable to be revised, but surgeons can advise switching to mini-gastric bypass or similar surgery.
  • Gastric Banding  – The standard of revisions surgeries, the Gastric Band to Gastric Sleeve Revision is the most practiced surgery. With the decreased effectiveness of gastric band surgery, many individuals aim for a life-long weight loss procedure to help aid their waistlines.
  • Gastric Sleeve  –  Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy can provide high expected weight loss, but if patients fail to achieve their weight loss goals, there are options. Many revision surgeries for the gastric sleeve involve adding the duodenal switch to the sleeve. This allows patients to fuel even higher expected weight loss.
  • Gastric Plication – The new procedure, gastric sleeve plication, can be revised to accommodate even higher weight loss. Most surgeons would advise opting in for the gastric sleeve, as their method of weight loss very similar.
