{{/* BP structured-data corrections, 2026-08-04. buildMetaTags() runs in Dispatcher\Front before the head renders, and includeJS serialises Output::i()->jsonLd at the end of body, so mutating the array here is what actually ships. This replaces what were core edits in system/Output/Output.php and therefore survives Invision upgrades. */}} {{/* 1. Core builds potentialAction with 'type' rather than '@type', which leaves the sitelinks SearchAction node untyped. */}} {{/* 3. If an app already published a BreadcrumbList, core's own serialisation of the display breadcrumbs is a second, conflicting one. The surgeons geo pages render breadcrumbs narrowest-first by design, so core's came out reversed. */}} {{/* Canonical and Open Graph fallbacks. An empty jsonLd on a rendered front page means buildMetaTags() never ran, which is how Output::error() renders. Treating that as "do not add a canonical" fails safe: the worst case is a page without a canonical, which is where we started. */}} Skip to content

  1. I also have the 4cc band. I have already had 3 fills and have no restriction at all. I am totally frustrated as this is already my 2nd band and i have gained alot of weight. When i got my 3rd fill on weds, the doc said that i will feel this and if anything i could be to tight. I have 3.2 in a 4cc band the small inamed band. I dont know whats going on. This is nothing to how my other band was. I felt restriction after my 2nd fill, but this one is so different.
  2. Its a bit uncomfortable but there is no pain involved
  3. My first band slipped had it removed on the 1st august, same day had a new one put in. If this one doesnt work, well thats it for me, i wont be going for a 3rd
