There are a range of weight-loss surgeries performed worldwide, tailored to meet each person’s needs – from the straightforward gastric balloon insertion to more comprehensive procedures such as:
- Intragastric balloon
- Gastric band
- Sleeve Gastrectomy
- Gastric Bypass surgery
- Duodenal switch or biliopancreatic diversion
- Banded bypass
At The London Obesity Clinic, we believe that weight loss surgery is only a tool for long-term weight loss. However, it’s not a journey you need to face alone. Research highlights that a robust support system significantly enhances post-surgery outcomes.
Why does one gain weight after weight loss surgery?
While weight regain can be common, especially with gastric band procedures, we’re here to guide you through the process. Uncover the reasons behind weight regain, addressing surgical factors like pouch dilatation and anastomotic dilatation, as well as non-surgical contributors such as endocrine abnormalities and psychological factors.
Ignoring weight regain can lead to a return to previous weights or even surpass them, impacting your psychological well-being and self-esteem. Additionally, increased weight poses risks of developing weight-related medical problems like type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, and hypertension.
