Bariatric Revision Surgery Tijuana

If your first surgery did not deliver the results you expected or you wish to reverse it,
you probably qualify for a bariatric revision surgery in Tijuana.

Bariatric Revision

A revision surgery is the set of procedures focused on correcting or finishing a previously performed surgery. The reasons why a bariatric surgery does not deliver the desired results are as varied as the people who have this type of procedures. When someone has morbid obesity, the priority is to improve the quality of life.

Safe procedure

It is necessary to undergo rigorous tests to know the reason why the first intervention did not take effect, before performing the second one. However, a bariatric revision surgery is a minor outpatient surgery, with less risk and a shorter recovery time.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Bariatric Revision Surgery

    How do I know if I qualify for a bariatric revision surgery?

    Since this is a corrective surgery where a patient presents discomfort, an adverse effect, or the results are not the expected ones, only a bariatric surgeon expert is qualified to assess each case in a particular way.

    Is it dangerous?

    Corrective surgeries are mostly minor procedures, less painful and with less probabilities of having adverse effects.

    When all obesity causes are solved, the success rate is 90%, and it is very important for the patient to only listen to the real experts with current certifications. This subject has an enormous amount of alarming myths that should not be listened to; that is the real danger.

    When will I be able to go back to my normal activities?

    Most bariatric revision surgeries are outpatient, so it is not necessary to be hospitalized after the surgery. However, the recovery time can only be determined by the doctor, depending on each case.
