Telehealth consultations available for bariatric surgery and general surgery
At Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery, we understand that every weight loss journey is unique and sometimes previous procedures like lap band surgery may require revisions. Our expert team, led by Dr. Jason Wong specialise in lap band revision surgery in Brisbane, ensuring tailored solutions for continued weight loss success and overall health improvement.
Lap band revision surgery is a procedure designed for patients who have previously undergone lap band surgery but have experienced complications, inadequate weight loss, or have had their lifestyle and health needs change over time. This surgery involves either adjusting, replacing, or removing the lap band to better suit the patient’s current situation. Contact our team today.
Reasons for considering a lap band revision procedure include weight gain, insufficient weight loss, band slippage, inability to swallow food properly, or damage to the oesophagus from the band. In some cases, the oesophagus can start to fail, can no longer contract properly and becomes dilated and floppy – a condition known as “pseudoachalasia”.
Choosing lap band revision surgery at Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery comes with several significant benefits. Each procedure is tailored to meet the individual needs of our patients, ensuring the best possible outcomes. The minimally invasive nature of our surgical techniques, results in minimal discomfort and promotes a quicker recovery process. Patients are in the experienced hands of Dr. Jason Wong, who is renowned for his low complication rates and exceptional surgical skills. Most importantly, our commitment to patient care extends beyond the operating room. We provide continuous support and comprehensive care post-surgery, including dietary advice and lifestyle modifications, to enhance the success and longevity of the revision. Our approach is holistic and patient-centred, prioritising the health and satisfaction of each individual who entrusts us with their care.
