Answer 1 You can go for lap band surgery or for gastric surgery; both have their individual advantages and disadvantages. It depends upon your body and its comfort factor; it is up to you to decide which you prefer. While making the decision you can take help of an experienced bariatric surgeon. But here are some points which you should keep in your mind during decision making.
In case of gastric surgery there are chances of you suffering many problems while gaining one aid. For an instance: gastric surgery might arise
intestinal leaking
dumping syndrome in which food passes the small intestine in haste
nutritional deficiencies is another case which can make you go weaker than normal
And even this is not the end there are still many other ways which can affect you.
Even lap band have some demerits. So it is up to your discretion which you prefer and also on what your body can take. But one assurance is for sure that in lap band you have to face less invasive process and it does not involve much of cutting and other surgeries.
