The adjustable gastric band in Mexico is a silicone ring with an inflatable bladder inside that connects to a device that allows you to modify its internal diameter.
The adjustable gastric band is placed around the upper stomach, reducing the ability of the stomach to receive food. This feeling of fullness and satisfaction facilitates compliance with the dietary program for the patient. Thus, this is a restrictive method for the treatment of obesity.
If you eat too much, you will feel nauseous or even vomit.
These unpleasant experiences will motivate you to avoid over-eating and will help you lose weight. For the very best results, patients must adhere to small to maintain the band. The band is filled by accessing the port secured below the skin on top of the muscle. The pillow pouch of the band is filled slowly in order to find what is often called the “green zone.” This term is used to communicate when you are satisfied between meals and losing satisfactory weight.
If you are considering adjustable gastric band surgery in Mexico, then you must be comfortable with the thought of having a medical device in your body for life. The band does have an excellent safety profile, with a relatively quick recovery. The procedure is performed laparoscopically. That basically means that a tiny camera allows the surgeon to see inside your body as he or she performs the procedure. Only a few very small incisions are made in the abdomen (about 1.5-2.5 cm each). The band is placed around your stomach using long, thin instruments.

The lap band procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis and the surgery itself typically takes less than an hour. When the procedure is performed in an inpatient setting, the hospital stay is generally less than one day. In most cases, you’ll get back to your life in about a week.
Adjustments to optimize the system are made through a discreet, comfortable access port that is placed just beneath the skin. The port is not visible. You may be able to feel it, but no one can see it, even after you have lost your desired weight.
There is no aspect of your life that isn’t impacted by obesity. From your energy levels to your confidence, those extra pounds weigh you down in more ways than one. While it isn’t a magical fix, the lap band does offer some pretty important benefits.
You will be put under general anesthesia. This allows us to safely place the lap band using laparoscopic techniques.
We will make the necessary incisions in the abdomen. If possible, we will keep this to just one, though more may be needed.
The band will be placed around your stomach and tightened to the ideal size. Then, the port will be placed and the band inflated.
We will close the incisions and you will be taken to recovery. Most likely, you will spend one night at the hospital, then be transferred to your hotel, where our nursing staff will monitor you.
