What is Revision Surgery?
Revision surgery is a second-chance weight loss procedure for patients who have previously undergone bariatric surgery but are experiencing weight regain or inadequate weight loss. Whether your original surgery was a gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, or lap band, revision surgery can help you get back on track and achieve your weight loss goals.
The gastric sleeve procedure has become the most popular weight loss surgery in the United States, yet some patients discover the need to restore restriction to their pouch. If not caught soon enough, the sleeve-shaped gastric pouch can begin to expand and enlarge, allowing patients to eat more at every sitting and potentially regain weight.
Why Do Patients Need Revisions?
- Stomach pouch has stretched over time
- Inadequate weight loss from first surgery
- Weight regain after initial success
- Not enough stomach removed originally
- Complications from previous surgery
- Desire for additional weight loss
Revision Options Available
- Sleeve to Sleeve: Re-sleeve the stomach to restore restriction
- Sleeve to Bypass: Convert sleeve to gastric bypass for enhanced weight loss
- Bypass Revision: Revise previous gastric bypass procedure

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about revision surgery
If you've had previous bariatric surgery and are experiencing weight regain, inadequate weight loss, or complications, you may be a candidate for revision surgery. Contact us for a consultation to discuss your specific situation.
Most surgeons recommend waiting at least 12-18 months after your initial surgery before considering a revision. This allows your body to fully heal and gives you time to maximize results from your first procedure.
Revision surgery is more complex due to scar tissue from the previous procedure, but in the hands of an experienced surgeon like Dr. Quinones, it is safe and effective. We take extra care to minimize risks and ensure optimal outcomes.
We offer sleeve-to-sleeve revision (re-sleeving), sleeve-to-bypass conversion, and bypass revisions. During your consultation, Dr. Quinones will recommend the best option based on your anatomy and weight loss goals.
Most revision patients achieve significant additional weight loss, especially when they commit to following post-operative dietary and exercise guidelines. Many patients report that revision surgery gives them the "reset" they needed.
Recovery is similar to your first surgery. You'll spend 2 nights in our hospital and 1 night in a hotel before returning home. Most patients feel significantly better within the first week and can resume normal activities within 2 weeks.
