Do you already have the band?

I just had to have my band replaced. The price to redo was the same as the 1st time. When I got price quotes on removal alone, that too was comparable.

Did you have it replaced since it was leaking?

Yes, the leak was confirmed in testing prior to removal. I had one band and scar tissue removed and a new band installed. It took less than 45 minutes where my doc says it takes him only 30 minutes to install an initial band.
