Gastric Bypass Revision Surgery
in Tijuana, Mexico
Did your gastric bypass stop working? Heartburn, weight regain, malnutrition, or other complications? You may be a candidate for revision surgery — performed in Mexico at a fraction of US/Canada cost, with the same quality of care.
Common Reasons to Consider Revision Surgery
A bariatric revision corrects problems with a previous weight-loss surgery — whether it stopped working, caused complications, or led to weight regain. Here are the most common indications.
Hadn't Reached Weight Goals
Original surgery didn't deliver expected weight loss. Revision can help achieve your remaining goal.
Significant Weight Regain
Diet, behavior, and exercise alone can't always reverse weight regain after bariatric surgery. Revision is often the answer.
GERD & Acid Reflux
Severe heartburn or indigestion that didn't resolve — or worsened — after your original procedure.
Nausea, Gas & Discomfort
Excessive nausea, gas, or discomfort that interferes with daily life and isn't resolving.
Malnutrition
Nutritional deficiencies that haven't responded to supplementation may indicate need for revision.
Mechanical Issues
Torn-apart staples, stretched-out gastric pouch, gastric band complications, or swallowing issues.

A Minimally Invasive Approach
Most gastric bypass revisions can be performed laparoscopically — with small "keyhole" incisions, lower complication rates, less pain, and faster recovery.
At ALO Bariatrics, we use the laparoscopic technique whenever possible. Small incisions allow us to insert surgical tools and a tiny camera into the abdomen to complete the surgery — no large open incisions, no long hospital stays.
This approach reduces pain, scarring, blood loss, and infection risk, while shortening your hospital stay and getting you back to normal activities faster.
- Smaller incisions, virtually scar-free
- Lower infection & bleeding risk
- Less post-op pain
- Shorter hospital stay (2–3 days)
- Faster return to normal activities
