After Care Programs

NewHope Bariatrics is pleased to offer a comprehensive aftercare program, designed to nurture your overall well-being and support optimal weight loss following LAP-BAND Surgery. We’re committed to helping our patients meet their individual goals through ongoing adjustments, support groups, round-the-clock medical assistance, and continuing education on diet, exercise and other helpful topics.

It’s a partnership in every sense of the word. We will do everything possible to help you find long-term success. Many of our staff has personal experience with the LAP-BAND, so you’d be hard-pressed to find more compassionate and understanding people to cheer you on towards a happier, healthier life.

This is a journey not a destination, so be patient and forgiving of yourself. We will. Surgery is an important part of the equation, but what happens afterwards, with your participation, is really where the work begins—and the results are celebrated.

Reaching Your Goal

Your LAP-BAND System is as unique as you are. It will be adjusted throughout your weight-loss program to accommodate your changing needs. Adjustment needs vary, but during the first year, most patients have between 3 and 5 adjustments. Adjustment needs vary, but during the first year, most patients have between 3 and 5 adjustments. In later years, it’s typical to have very small adjustments made.

The following offers an overview of what you can expect along the way. But please keep in mind that everyone is different. You cannot compare your LAP-BAND to anyone else’s. Your weight loss and adjustments will be determined by your individual needs and your physician’s expert insight.
