It is important you understand the risks associated with weight loss surgery. Your surgeon will make sure you are fully informed and committed to make changes before you sign WLS Group terms and conditions. Obesity is a disease and being seriously overweight is a great risk to your health. Whilst surgery does carry risks, these are far outweighed by the risk of you doing nothing. You will be asked to follow a pre-operative regime to shrink the liver. This is to allow easier access to your stomach during surgery.

Surgery patients are not always successful in reaching their weight loss goals. Reasons for post-operative weight loss failure can include problems with the original surgery, as well as patient inability to comply with necessary life style changes.

We specialise in working with patients who have already had weight loss surgery, but are looking for another solution as their original surgery has not been a success, for whatever reason.

Preventing complications, managing complications and managing patients post operatively are all equally challenging aspects of care to us at the WLS Group.

We can offer one to one consultations to patients with post-surgery weight loss failure to discuss revision surgery further. Patients are screened carefully to determine cause of failure and are medically evaluated prior to any further surgery taking place.

We also ensure you receive comprehensive guidelines for post surgical compliance appropriate to the procedure you have chosen to have.
