Lap-Band : If you face a daily struggle due to obesity, you are just one of millions of Americans that should consider getting the LAP-BAND® surgery to help with the chronic physical discomfort and self-consciousness brought on by excessive weight. Those concerned with how obesity will impact their health should contact Dr. Joseph Naim, a bariatric surgeon providing the Lap Band surgery to Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Orange County residents. The procedure is designed to actually reduce the amount that your stomach can hold, making it easier to feel full and ultimately leading to natural, effortless weight loss. Due to its use of laparoscopes (thin, long tubes inserted through very small incisions in the abdomen), the LAP-BAND® surgery is minimally invasive and doesn`t involve stapling procedures. Dr. Naim begins by placing a hollow tube around the stomach`s upper portion. Once healed, the band is then filled with a saline solution meant to taper down the upper portion of the stomach, forcing food to pass through your system more slowly. This ultimately shrinks your stomach, which means that with time you`ll begin to feel full after eating much less. Patients have reported a preference for the LAP-BAND® procedure over other forms of bariatric surgery due to the fact that it`s reversible and does not require the removal of any portion of the stomach or intestines.

Gastric Bypass : Is excessive weight stopping you from taking part in the activities that you once really enjoyed? Are you discovering that even simple tasks have become more and more difficult? Obesity can seriously affect your life by disrupting your daily routine and potentially causing serious health problems like high blood pressure, sleep apnea, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). If you struggle daily with obesity and have found limited success through exercise and changes to your diet, you may be a perfect candidate for gastric bypass Surgery in Los Angeles offered by bariatric surgeon Dr. Joseph Naim. When eaten, food typically travels through your intestines and down into your stomach. After that, it moves into the small intestine, where your body absorbs most of the nutrients and calories that the food has to offer. The food then passes through to the large intestine, where additional moisture is removed from the food before it is expelled from the body. To put it simply, a gastric bypass sections off a portion of your stomach so that you don`t eat as much.

Tummy Tuck Surgery : Following tummy tuck Los Angeles surgery like a sleeve gastrectomy or LAP-BAND® surgery, you may be delighted at the dramatic weight loss that results. However, you may still be left with a sagging belly that fails to complement your vastly reduced BMI and healthy body. Even if you are at your ideal weight, the skin and muscles around your belly may retain their pre-surgery shape, having become weakened, separated, or stretched when you were a larger size. Dr. Joseph Naim corrects excess skin using tummy tuck surgery in Los Angeles. Dr. Naim can provide you with a smoother, tighter stomach that matches your fit new body and healthy weight. Contact us today to learn more and schedule a consultation in Long Beach or at one of our four Los Angeles and Orange County locations. A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, is generally performed one year after your bariatric surgery, or once you have reached your optimal and expected weight.

Because tummy tucks are slightly more involved when performed on post-bariatric patients, they can take two to three hours. Dr. Naim will make an incision between your hip bones, at about the level of your pubic hair. Through this incision, he will reattach separated muscles, and remove excess fat, tissue, and skin. He will also separate and reattach your navel, since some of the surrounding tissue will have been removed during the tummy tucks procedure.
