Results of the surgery

Successfull results on weight-loss are constant, unless technical flaws. 60 to 70% of the excess-weight are due to be lost within 12 to 18 months. Here is, from many statistics, what to expect for weight-loss over time after surgery.


Exemple: a patient is 160 cm tall and weights 110 kg. His excess-weight is 55 kg. He is likely to loose 36 kg one year and a half after surgery.
