You can lose between 50-80 percent of your excess weight during the first year following your Easy Band surgery. In addition, Easy Lap Banding is one of the safest weight loss surgeries available today.

Benefits of using Easy Lap Banding for weight loss:

• You can heal faster with minimally invasive surgery than with traditional surgical incisions. Easy Lap Banding patients can be back on their feet in a week or less. Traditional incisions affect larger areas of the body which will need time to heal. The Easy Lap Banding can be performed with a laparoscope and other small surgical tools without causing a great amount of stress to your body.

• Gastric bypass reroutes the intestines and stomach which means cutting and sometimes stapling. Other than the incisions made for the band to be implanted, there is no cutting or stapling. With Easy Lap Banding, the band fits around your stomach and is tightened, making your stomach smaller.

• After Easy Lap Banding is complete, an access port underneath your skin will allow your surgeon to fill the band around your stomach with saline solution from time to time. You can customize how many calories you take in by tightening or loosening the band.

• A common complaint from gastric bypass patients is malnutrition resulting from compromised food absorption in the small intestine. Easy Lap Banding helps you lose weight by making your stomach smaller, not preventing your food from being absorbed.
