GASTRIC BANDING FOR WEIGHT LOSS
Our experienced bariatric surgeons specialise in minimally invasive weight-loss surgery, including gastric banding
A lap band, also known as a gastric band, works by reducing the amount of food you eat. The procedure involves placing an adjustable silicone ring around the top of your stomach to create a small pouch. This pouch restricts the amount of food that can pass through to your stomach and helps you to feel full faster.
Being overweight can increase your risk of serious conditions including diabetes, hypertension and heart disease. If your body mass index (BMI) is over 35, your consultant may recommend laparoscopic banding surgery to help you lose weight and improve your overall health.
You don't need medical insurance to have fast access to our top consultants, extensive range of treatments, diagnostic tests and surgical procedures at our world-class facilities.
