REVISIONAL SURGERY
Some patients who undergo bariatric surgery may have unsatisfactory results or regain much of the weight that they originally lost. There are many factors that can contribute to inadequate weight-loss, such as:
frequent snacking on high-calorie foods
lack of exercise
post-surgical complications
unsuccessful resolution of co-morbidities (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure)
Not all individuals with earlier, unsuccessful bariatric surgery will be candidates for revision surgery. Revision surgery is associated with more risks than the first time surgery. Dr. Takla will consider the probable risks and benefits and suggest the appropriate tests and/or treatment for you.
