When you go to get a unfill for being too tight

How much don they usually take out?

I haven't needed an unfill yet, but I think if you tell them exactly how you feel and what you can eat they should know the amount to take out. Good luck!

It depends on the issue you are having. It can be all, 1 cc, etc. Again, it depends.

They told me if I have a prob they will take part of the fill they just entered. I was curious. No big problems thank god just too tight to eat solids. No vomiting everything goes down and stays just uncomfortable

It depends on many factors, not least of which is your dr's policies. Expect to be asked about how much you can eat, whether you can keep drinks down, how long since your last fill, how you felt before that fill, how much that fill was.

I have had 1cc put in, was too tight, then had half of that removed (and she could hear my saliva gurgling through the band as she withdrew it too).

That was more than enough to have removed. I am going back today to have 0.25cc replaced.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
