Hi I'm new here

currently have an emptied lap band due to complications and I've been offered a sleeve to replace

it may be done in one go depending on the scar tissue as to wether I have to wait for a second surgery.

Has anyone else here had a revision from band to sleeve and how was your experience ? Does it work

are there many cons ?

I may have to wait until November to get the revision done so I am trying to get some knowledge about it beforehand

any advisee would be great

thank you

I'm having revision surgery on May 17


Lap band 2009
Sw 200/lw 161/cw 214
Sleeve revision booked 17 May

I had it done 3 months ago. Within 1 month I lost more weight than during the entire 5 years I had the lap band. No regrets or complications with the band to sleeve revision. Mine was one surgery, and I felt about the same pain-wise as the lap band surgery. I would definitely say go for it!
