If you are overweight and other weight loss treatments haven’t worked, the LAP-BAND® System may be for you. It’s a minimally invasive, safe and effective weight loss surgery using the most advanced adjustable gastric banding system.

The LAP-BAND System can help you achieve lasting results by limiting food intake, reducing appetite and slowing digestion. But the pounds do not come off by themselves. It is important to understand that you play an active role in the weight-loss process and ultimate success of the procedure. LAP-BAND System patients should expect gradual weight loss, approximately 3-4 pounds per week on average over the first year. Your individual excess weight-loss results may vary.
