Obesity has become a major health hazard nowadays irrespective of age. It may lead to high blood pressure, diabetes and other heart related disorders. Everyone is keen to reduce or bring down the weight to the standard level. To reduce the weight, weight reduction techniques may not yield the desired result.
Weight Loss Procedures:
1. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is the current gold standard procedure for weight loss surgery and one of the most preferred weight loss procedures in United States. In this procedure, a small (15 to 20cc) stomach pouch is created. The remainder of the stomach is completely divided and separated from the stomach pouch. For this the small intestine is divided just beyond the duodenum for the purpose of bringing it up and constructing a connection with the newly formed stomach pouch.
2. LAP-BAND® System is an adjustable lap band designed to help you lose excess body weight, the laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding reduces the stomach capacity and reduces the food intake. When the stomach is smaller, you feel full faster, while the food moves more slowly between your upper and lower stomach as it is digested. As a result, you eat less and lose weight.
3. Another gastric banding system is the REALIZE Personal Banding Solution. The REALIZE Band works similar to the LAP-BAND, the stomach is divided into two parts and making you feel fuller sooner. The adjustable REALIZE Band, a strong, flexible silicone structure made entirely of biocompatible materials, is implanted using the laparoscopic technique.
