Lap band slippage may result the situation of hospitalization and sometimes re-operation. So it’s better to prevent this before it happens. In order to avoid lap band slippage it is must to follow diet plan properly. You should follow the recommended diet after surgery. In early stage never try to introduce solid food in your diet. Chew your food completely. Patient must go for lap band fill after 6 weeks of surgery and this should be very gradual. It is recommended to done lap band fill under fluoroscopy because it monitors the position of lap band and the size of lap band pouch. You can treat as early diagnosis of possibilities of lap band slippage. If the band is placed in proper way by surgeon then there would be no chances of lap band slippage.

If you experience slippage of band then you must meet your surgeon.
