Beverly Hills Physicians is proud to offer both Lap-Band® and Realize® banding surgery options!
A BMI of 30 or above is considered obese.
Beverly Hills Physicians has an expansive set of weight loss and management services. We have specialized plastic surgeons in the areas of banding and gastric bypass operations, as well as nutritionists who can set up non-surgical or weight loss surgery complementing weight loss and nutrition programs. Our two most popular adjustable gastric banding options are the LAP-BAND® and REALIZE™ systems.
Please join us for an informative discussion on Lap-Band® and Realize™ banding procedures. The seminars and bariatric surgeries are designed for persons fighting obesity and not for persons needing only to lose some weight or body fat.
Obesity can be a chronic disease, meaning that its symptoms build slowly over an extended period of time. Millions of Americans are considered obese, and many of those millions are morbidly obese. Obesity becomes "morbid" when it reaches the point of significantly increasing the risk of one or more obesity-related health conditions or serious diseases (also known as co-morbidities) that can result either in significant physical disability or even death.
Weight loss surgery is major surgery. Its growing use to treat obesity and morbid obesity is the result of three factors: our current knowledge of the significant health risks of morbid obesity, the relatively low risk and complications of the procedures versus not having surgery, and the ineffectiveness of current non-surgical approaches to produce sustained weight loss. The materials found here will provide valuable information on the benefits and risks of bariatric surgery. However, the best way to get a full assessment of your condition is to schedule a consultation to determine if weight loss surgery may be an option for you.
