How Lap Band Works

by admin on August 13, 2010

Many people have heard of the LAP-BAND®, but not everyone knows exactly how it works. Thankfully, you can call 800 Get Thin about how LAP-BAND® works and they can give you complete information about this popular procedure.

Essentially, LAP-BAND® works by making your stomach smaller. But unlike other weight loss procedures, it doesn’t do this by stapling or cutting your stomach to make it smaller. The operators at 800 Get Thin will tell you how LAP-BAND® works to decrease the amount of food you need to feel full without permanently damaging your stomach or the surrounding organs.

Your doctor will place the LAP-BAND® around the top portion of your stomach. The placement of the band creates a stoma, or small pouch at the top of the stomach. This pouch fills with food quickly and the band slows the passage of food from the pouch to the lower part of the stomach. As the upper part of the stomach registers as full, the message to the brain is that the entire stomach is full. This helps the person to be less hungry, to feel full quicker and for a longer period of time, to eat smaller portions, and to lose weight over time.

The LAP-BAND® is adjusted via a small access port placed just under the skin. Saline solution is injected into the gastric band via the port. When saline is injected, the band expands, creating a smaller pouch. This makes it so your doctor can adjust your LAP-BAND® so you can eat more or less food.

Over the course of several visits to the doctor, the band is filled to an extent where the patient feels he or she has found the “sweet spot,” where optimal restriction has been achieved – where you can eat enough o get vitamins and nutrients without putting on any weight. This is an individual experience and cannot be predicted.

So that’s how the LAP-BAND® works. Call 800 Get Thin to learn more details about how LAP-BAND® works and to find information on weight loss.
