Answers:
The Gastric Bypass surgery that has become popular as of late is the first technique used by surgeons to bypass much of the stomach in essence shrinking the capacity of the stomach!. This procedure is not reversible and has a few complication risks!. The lap band is a newer form of gastric surgery which is fully adjustable and removable making it much safer and easier to adjust to!.
