About the Surgery
Revision Bariatric Surgery is a corrective operation performed after a previous weight loss surgery.
It helps manage weight regain, persistent obesity-related conditions, or complications such as reflux or pouch dilation. By tailoring the surgical approach, our specialists help patients regain control, improve digestion, and achieve healthy long-term weight management.
Patients typically experience renewed weight loss and improved wellbeing within the first 6–12 months after surgery.
