General Info

There are many ways to lose weight. For those who are at least 30 pounds overweight with weight related issues or a 100 pounds overweight, the risks of surgery are less than staying that weight over time. The longer a person carries excessive weight the more likely they are to develop weight-related medical conditions. Nobody is happy with medical problems if they can help it. If you are significantly overweight and have tried to lose weight but are still in the surgery-candidate range, weight loss surgery should be considered. Of all the weight loss surgical options the Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding (Lap-Band) is the safest. It is reversible, adjustable, and has the lowest complication rate. The Lap-Band is a silicone band placed around the top of the stomach to help people feel less hungry. It creates a narrowing above the band and results in pressure on the stomach sending signals to the brain that the whole stomach is fuller than it really is. People will feel satisfied on smaller volumes of food and feel full faster resulting in less calories consumed. Weight loss occurs with less hunger. Lap-Band is a tool to assist in weight loss. It may help you with your own happiness. At Utah Lap Band we specialize in Lap-Band Surgery success for you.
