Gastric Banding Houston, Texas

You've finally decided that you need surgery to lose weight. Your health is just too valuable, and you know about the long term health risks that come with being overweight or obese. However, there are so many confusing weight loss surgery options; you're not sure which procedure to choose. In Houston, Texas, Lap Band Center of Houston, they offer gastric banding surgery like the LAP BAND to help you achieve your weight loss goals.

Gastric banding and a gastric bypass are not the same. A gastric bypass is more expensive and complex, with a far more physical change to the interior of the body. Gastric bypass surgery actually decreases the volume of food that the stomach can handle at one time while shortening the distance that nutrients travel through the intestines. In effect, the body absorbs fewer calories because of the bypassed length of intestine. Gastric banding, however, leaves your internal organs alone, and merely places an adjustable band around the top of the stomach to create a smaller pouch. This band can then be expanded or shrunk depending on your weight loss needs and is fully reversible should you ever change your mind.

Health concerns that can be improved after gastric band surgery:

  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • High Blood Pressure
  • Sleep Apnea
  • High Cholesterol
  • Respiratory Problems


Lap Band Center of Houston can help you figure out if gastric banding is the right procedure for you. The highly-trained surgeons can provide the compassionate care and skill that you need. That way you can be certain you have made the right decision.
