Are You Planning To Go Under The Knife To Be Lighter?

If you are planning to undergo a bariatric surgery to loose those few redundant pounds then make sure you get it performed by only the best. The surgeons at Journey Lite are some of the best, trained in less-invasive methods of bariatric surgery. Your weight loss would definitely be sans the customary pain.

Journey Lite has made a mark in Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding. Also known as LAGB or the LAP-BAND® System procedure. This procedure can be better understood and appreciated by knowing it better:


In this procedure, your Journey Lite surgeon inserts an inflatable adjustable gastric band through small (laparoscopic) incisions and positions the band around the upper portion of your stomach. This creates a small stomach pouch and passageway into the lower part of the stomach. This procedure will allow you to feel full and satisfied while you actually eat less and lose excess weight.
This surgical procedure has the bragging rights of being the least invasive surgical procedure and on development of any unexpected complications it can be easily reversed. As the surgical procedure doesn't require any incisions and can be performed in an outpatient setting, it is preferable over normal normal procedures. The bariatric surgery performed by the highly skilled surgeons at Journey Lite also has short recovery time.
