| Developed to aid in long-term weight loss, the BioEnterics® Lap-Band® System has been used by leading laparoscopic surgeons worldwide to treat severe obesity.
Sustained weight loss with the BioEnterics® Lap-Band® System is achieved by reducing the capacity of the stomach. The silicone adjustable band component
of the BioEnterics® LAP-BAND® System is placed around the upper part of the stomach, forming a small gastric pouch to limit and control the amount of food
you eat and slow the emptying process from the stomach into the intestines.
Limiting food intake and slowing the stomach emptying process results in
weight loss. |
