If you are seriously overweight, the LAP-BAND surgery can help you achieve a happier, healthier life! There are times when every overweight person feels alone. In reality they are not. There are over one billion overweight adults found throughout this world. As an overweight person, you have to worry about things such as high blood pressure, increased depression, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. If you have tried countless diets and exercise regimes to no avail, then it may be time to consider LAP-BAND surgery. How LAP-BAND is placed in body: After performing a series of small incisions, your surgeon would use a small camera, called a laparoscope to visualize placement of the Lap-Band. The Lap-Band is placed around the top of the stomach and secured in place with sutures. The port is then placed underneath the skin on the top part of the abdomen. Surgery should take only about an hour and an overnight stay in the hospital may or may not be required. Once the instruments are in place, a small tunnel is made behind the top of the stomach. The band is then pulled around the stomach to form a ring. This ring is then locked holding securely the band in a circle around the stomach.

Benefits of LAP-BAND surgery: 1. Very low risk, with 1/10th or less the chance of complications compared to gastric bypass surgery. 2. This is the only surgery that is adjustable, allowing decreasing or control stomach size even many years later. This will prevent weight regain. 3. Safe for pregnancy by allowing opening of the stomach size to eat more while pregnant. 4. All adjustments are done with no further surgery. 5. Proven to work worldwide with many doctors, surgeons and nurses undergoing the procedure themselves. 6. Only surgery that is reversible, with the stomach completely returning to normal size and function if necessary for any medical condition. After LAP-BAND surgery: Recovery and Aftercare: After LAP-BAND surgery, you should be able to return to work within a week, with minimal discomfort. You will need to follow a nutrition plan (which may include vitamin supplements) prescribed by your surgeon or nutritionist. The nutrition plan will likely include a liquid diet for a few weeks, until you can tolerate soft foods and later solid foods. A specific exercise program, as well as behavioral-modification therapy, may also be recommended. Frequent hospital visits are mandatory to adjust the band. Your surgeon or his assistant will be able to inject the port in the hospital. On average,

patients require six to eight adjustments of the band during the first 18 months following Lap-Band surgery. Patients typically lose 50% to 60% of their excess body weight within two years after the procedure. Additional plastic surgery may be indicated, depending on how much weight is lost. LAP-BAND surgery complications: As with any surgical procedure, there are known risks. Besides the standard risks of most procedures, including bleeding and infection, there are complications specific to Lap-Band surgery. Slippage of the band can occur as you lose weight and the stomach goes above the band, causing heartburn or vomiting. This can usually be fixed laparoscopically. Rarely, the band may erode into the inside of the stomach. Why go for LAP-BAND surgery in India: India is promoting the "high-tech healing" of its private healthcare sector as a tourist attraction.
