Can you see results from lap band surgery within months after the procedure?

It is possible to see results from lap band surgery within months after the procedure. In general, patients can expect to lose approximately 1-2 pounds per week in the first few months following surgery. This rate of weight loss may slow down over time, but most patients can expect to lose a significant amount of weight within the first year after surgery.

Individual results may vary, however, and some patients may experience more rapid or slower weight loss. It is important to follow the dietary and exercise guidelines provided by your doctor in order to maximize your weight loss results.

In addition to weight loss, lap band surgery can also help to improve other health conditions that are associated with obesity, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and sleep apnea.
