Midband™-the latest generation of gastric banding for weight loss
The Midband™ is a qualitatively different and new approach for safe weight loss support. It can help to turn dreams of weight loss into reality; it can help you take control of your life rather than life controlling you. The Midband™ is one of the latest generation gastric bands to become available to support weight loss. Anyone considering weight loss surgery will have already tried a multitude of diets and will know that the problems associated with obesity such as diabetes, high blood pressure, problems with sleeping and so on, affect quality of life and can shorten life span. The Midband™ offers a simple weight loss solution, that is safe and quick to implant. With over 10,000 MidBand™ implants across Europe, the Midband™, is the latest generation in gastric banding. The MidBand™ has an established record for safety and very low complication rates ( worth knowing when deciding the best approach for you or your patients). The MidBand™ is suitable for obese, morbidly obese and super obese people wishing to lose weight and it is gentle to the stomach when in place. The MidBand™ is incredibly soft and it gently but firmly hugs the stomach to create a small pouch so reducing food intake. The procedure can be performed as a day case, is quick, easy to implant and can facilitate up to 80% excess weight loss over 24 months*.
