We Provide Lasting Weight Loss Surgery Results "My results are more than I imagined was possible."
David Alexander
2022
My results are more than I imagined was possible. I'm down 155 pounds in 6 months. I went to an annual screening that my employer requires and the numbers were the best in 30 years. The staff was professional and efficient 6 months ago as well. My biggest regret is that I waited so long to get the surgery!

View On GoogleTypes of Bariatric Surgery Revisions
The type of revision surgery you need depends on the type of bariatric surgery you originally had and the issues you are facing post-operation. You will discuss any complications you are having with one of our weight loss experts so they can determine which surgical option is right for you.
Gastric Sleeve Revision
A gastric sleeve, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a surgical procedure in which the stomach is dramatically reduced in size, making the remaining stomach look like a sleeve. If a previous gastric sleeve procedure has failed to produce your desired results, our bariatric surgeon will start by further reducing the size of your stomach. This conservative approach is typically enough to promote dramatic weight loss. However, if re-sleeving is not a suitable option, a gastric sleeve can be changed into a gastric bypass or duodenal switch (combination of gastric bypass and sleeve).
Gastric Bypass Revision
Gastric bypass is similar to sleeve gastrectomy in that it reduces the size of your stomach. However, gastric bypass also reroutes your small intestine, which reduces food absorption. If you are not seeing the desired results from a gastric bypass, our bariatric surgeons will start by performing a minimally invasive distal bypass (a gastric bypass variant) to further reduce calorie absorption. If a distal bypass is not a suitable option, they may suggest a duodenal switch or another bariatric procedure.
LAP-BAND Revision
LAP-BAND surgery has one of the highest revision rates of any bariatric procedure. Patients are prone to regain weight, the band can slip, and the surrounding tissue can become infected. Because of the potential complications surrounding the LAP-BAND bariatric procedure, our surgeons will often recommend removing the LAP-BAND and performing a sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass instead. The type of bariatric surgery our surgeon recommends will depend on which one they think will best suit your needs and help you reach your weight loss goals.
Dramatic Weight Loss Can Have Life-Long Benefits
Other Revision Surgery Options
Only your bariatric surgeon will know which option will best fit your needs and yield the best results. Depending on your needs, your doctor may recommend:
- Revision to distal bypass
- Revision from sleeve gastrectomy to distal bypass
- Revision LAP-BAND to gastric sleeve
- Revision LAP-BAND to bypass
- Revision LAP-BAND to mini bypass
- Revision LAP-BAND to duodenal switch
- Revision LAP-BAND to plication

I did numerous hours of research before considering ALO Bariatrics because of the dangers of medical tourism. Once I convinced my mom (a 20+ year RN) that I had done enough research and that he was licensed and had a great record I had the gastric sleeve performed in Puerta Vallarta and it was an amazing experience.

Revision Surgery Recovery
What To Expect
Your recovery will greatly depend on the type of revision you undergo. During your free consultation, we will give you an overview of what your recovery will be like and how long it is expected to take. You will be closely monitored post-operation to ensure a safe recovery with no complications. In general, this is the timeline you can expect:
Follow your surgeon's post-operation instructions to ensure a safe recovery and lasting results.
Conservative Techniques To Give You the Best Results
Our experienced bariatric surgeons always use the least invasive laparoscopic techniques possible when performing a revision. Laparoscopic surgery allows for smaller incisions, a quicker and safer recovery, and minimal scarring. We are also experienced in working around scar tissue from a previous surgery.
We take your safety and recovery very seriously. To ensure the revision surgery lasts, we take extra safety measures during the procedure, like suturing staple lines to prevent leakage and other complications.

We were fortunate enough to book bariatric gastric sleeve surgery with Alo. Sandra was an excellent coordinator and she really cares about the patients. The whole staff was top notch. Do yourself a favor and don't look anywhere else if you need bariatric surgery.
