Options in Weight Loss Surgery

It’s often said that life is a series of choices; that certainly applies when patients explore the increasing number of exciting options that are now available in bariatric surgery. Beverly Hills Physicians offers patients every type of widely weight loss surgery from some of the finest board certified surgeons in Southern California.

Every patient is different, so the choice of surgery is rarely a cut and dried matter. More and more patients today lean towards gastric sleeve surgery as it is less invasive option that the older gastric bypass/roux-en-Y surgery and also allows patients to maintain their ability to eat all kinds of foods, albeit in much smaller portions than before. This surgery drastically reduces the size of the stomach and appears to lower appetite dramatically, so that long-term, sustained weight loss becomes vastly easier.

At the same, many patients having their first surgery lean towards the lap band and similar products. These are procedures that have the advantage of being adjustable and reversible, and therefore many first-time bariatric patients are drawn to them. This procedure is very often effective but, when it isn’t, the leading edge weight loss surgeons of BHP are expert in lap band revision to gastric sleeve procedures which have consistently transformed initially disappointing procedures into ones with stellar results.
