Is there anything that the surgeon needs to know about the port for my lapband when I have my surgery? I have no idea how this will affect the surgery.

No idea, but any questions like that you should just ask your surgeon.

I had this procedure as well, although mine was done in two separate surgeries because I had other things done at the same time. Everyday I love the results I have. It was more than worth the money and the mild amount of pain to have a body that looks fantastic in clothing without having to smother it in Spanx.
