Today, we will discuss a procedure to help you achieve better results.

So, what is gastric bypass revision surgery? Let’s find out!

What is gastric bypass revision surgery?

Gastric bypass revision surgery is a surgical treatment performed on individuals who have previously undergone bariatric surgery and have either experienced difficulties or have not obtained significant weight loss results from the initial surgery.

It is a minimally invasive treatment developed to manage weight regain following gastric bypass surgery. By limiting your ability to absorb food and calories, this surgery can help you lose more weight after regaining weight.

Why is gastric bypass revision surgery performed?

• The patient’s weight decrease was insufficient.
• Following initial weight loss, the patient gained significant weight.
• Problems that were not anticipated.

The changes will prevent weight gain and encourage additional weight loss.

Individuals who have undergone gastric bypass surgery have a good chance of losing a lot of weight. However, getting rid of excess weight and keeping it off is a never-ending task that necessitates a lifelong commitment to healthy lifestyle choices.

Why does weight gain occur or weight loss plateaus?

A patient’s metabolism may work against them when attempting to lose weight. When people restrict their food intake to lose weight, their bodies go into survival mode and adapt by slowing their metabolism. This natural survival mechanism conserves energy by burning fewer calories.

• The patient’s previous bariatric operation may not have been the best fit.
• Patients may overeat just enough to extend their stomach pouch, requiring more food to make the individual feel full, so they continue to eat more, resulting in weight gain.
• Structural changes may occur that reduce the original bariatric surgery’s restrictive nature and allow more food to be consumed. Enlargement of the junction between the small intestine and the stomach is the most prevalent occurrence.
• Patients commonly revert to weight-gaining behaviors and make poor decisions that jeopardize their weight-loss efforts.
• Stress management is critical for preventing weight gain and promoting weight loss. In response to stress, the body produces the hormone cortisol, which urges the body to retain any excess fat.

A gastric bypass revision can help people recover control of their weight gain and get their weight loss plan back on track.

The benefits of a gastric bypass revision surgery

The main benefits of opting for gastric bypass revision surgery are as follows:

• You have option of surgery or endoscopic way .
• Compared to the time required for corrective surgery, the endoscopic repair is significantly faster.
• Gastric bypass revision restores the initial bariatric procedure’s weight loss potential.
• Even you have a option of combination therapy which can help to loose weight without surgery

Following the revision, the usable stomach capacity is reduced to its prior size or even less, resuming its limited character as it did immediately following the initial bypass.
