What is Revision Weight Loss Surgery?
Revision weight loss surgery is a second-chance procedure for patients who have had previous bariatric surgery that either failed to produce adequate weight loss, resulted in weight regain, or caused complications. At Pompeii Surgical, we specialize in converting failed or inadequate surgeries to either gastric sleeve or gastric bypass.
Whether you've had a gastric sleeve that stretched, a lapband that slipped or eroded, a gastric bypass that didn't work as expected, or any other bariatric procedure, we can help you get back on track with a revision surgery tailored to your specific needs.

Why Choose Revision Surgery?
If your previous weight loss surgery didn't work as expected, you're not alone. Many patients experience weight regain, complications, or inadequate results. Revision surgery gives you a second chance at success.
Weight Regain After Initial Surgery
If you've regained weight after your first bariatric surgery, a revision can help you lose weight again and maintain it long-term.
Inadequate Initial Weight Loss
If your first surgery didn't produce the expected weight loss results, a revision to a more effective procedure can help.
Complications from Previous Surgery
Band slippage, erosion, severe reflux, or other complications can be resolved with revision surgery.
Anatomical Changes
Stretched stomach pouch, dilated sleeve, or other anatomical changes that reduce effectiveness can be corrected.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the most common questions about revision surgery
You may be a candidate if you've had previous bariatric surgery and experienced weight regain, inadequate weight loss, or complications. We evaluate each case individually, reviewing your surgical history, current health status, and weight loss goals to determine the best revision approach.
Generally, we 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. However, if you're experiencing serious complications, we may perform revision surgery sooner.
Revision surgery is more complex than primary surgery due to scar tissue and altered anatomy, but in the hands of an experienced surgeon like Dr. Quinones, it is very safe. Our complication rates for revision surgery are comparable to primary procedures. We take extra precautions and use advanced techniques to ensure your safety.
Most patients achieve 60-70% of their remaining excess weight loss with revision surgery. While results vary based on your starting point and commitment to lifestyle changes, revision surgery can be just as effective as primary surgery when performed correctly. Many patients achieve their goal weight after revision.
Yes, we strongly recommend obtaining your operative report and any imaging from your previous surgery. This helps us understand exactly what was done and plan the best revision approach. If you can't obtain records, we can still evaluate you, but having them makes the process smoother and safer.
Yes, in most cases we can remove your lapband and perform a gastric sleeve or bypass in the same surgery. This is called a single-stage revision. However, if there's significant inflammation or infection, we may recommend a two-stage approach where we remove the band first and perform the sleeve or bypass 3-6 months later.
