One of my biggest concerns and the reason GastroBypass is completely out of the question is because everyone I know that has had the Bypass look as though they have melted in their skin. That is NOT the vision.I know there are other concerns and benefits other than the physical but lets keep it real. I don't want anyone thinking I am sick. I know with the Bypass there is some sort of vitamin deficiency which has attributed to hair loss, even though nothing is being re-routed have any of you experienced hair loss?

I know you lose weight quicker than a Lap-band but not as quick as the Bypass. Does the Sleeve has this melted-look drawback? Also, I know with the Bypass there is some sort of vitamin deficiency which has attributed to hair loss, even though nothing is being re-routed have any of you experienced hair loss? Is there anyone that is unsatisfied with the Sleeve, if so WHY?
