Service Description
We perform gastric band surgery through laproscopy. A silicone band is wrapped around the upper part of the stomach to create a small stomach. Small quantity of food can fill up the small stomach providing satisfaction/satiety to the person.
Narrow outlet of this small stomach delays progression of food into intestine – person feels full for longer period. Further, the size of the stomach opening can be adjusted by injecting saline through a button under the skin. In this way, weight loss can be controlled. Person is able to eat smaller meals at long interval.
