Revision Surgery
Revision bariatric surgery is performed to adjust or convert a previous weight-loss procedure that has not met your goals. This complex surgery is tailored to your specific needs to help restart weight loss or address complications. Recovery is similar to the initial operation, requiring a hospital stay and a carefully managed diet.
Revision Surgery explained
Revision (or conversion) surgery adjusts or changes a previous weight-loss procedure that is no longer working as hoped.
What is revision surgery?
Bariatric revision surgery corrects or converts an earlier weight-loss procedure, for example if weight has returned, the result has plateaued, or there are complications or reflux. The surgeon reviews your original surgery and recommends the most suitable adjustment or new procedure.
Is it right for me?
It may suit people whose previous bariatric surgery hasn't achieved or maintained the result, or who have developed related problems. A careful assessment of your history and current health confirms whether revision is appropriate and which approach is safest.
