Endora got a reaction from Frustr8 in Band to sleeve revision scheduled in Mexico in OctoberHello, all....
After extensive research, I've decided to revise from band to sleeve in Mexico.
I was banded in 2005, and want to know about the issues with scar tissue.
I have read some posts here where some people had a lot of scar tissue, but the surgeon completed the revision. While other surgeons didn't complete the revision because of scar tissue.
For those of you who had your band over 10 years, and revised to sleeve, what was your experience with the scar tissue? Does it develop because of he length of time the band is in place? Or does it develop based on the person's body?
Any insight is appreciated.
