Slimband weight loss surgery offers a new approach to losing weight and keeping it off. It is designed to be a manageable solution to help you with successful long-term weight control.

Everyone can lose weight…the truth is it's hard to maintain a diet for any long period of time and once you hit your goal weight it's even tougher to find the motivation to stay there. That's why a number of studies have found that up to 95% of people who diet to lose weight put it back on within two to three years.

The Slimband program is a 2 step process that involves the surgical implantation of a small band around the stomach and a 4 year follow-up support plan that includes nutritional counseling, fitness programs and fill adjustments.

This type of program and weight loss surgery typically results in 48% excess weight loss within the first year. While a patient's physical transformation is stunning, the benefits of this procedure go far beyond the cosmetic. In addition to such self-image gains, weight loss surgery can drastically increase energy levels and help control or eliminate weight-aggrieved conditions like heart disease, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes.
