HELP w/BAND SIZES

[n2win 123]

Does anyone know the current sizes of Lap-Bands?

[michpell39 399]

To my knowledge they are either a 10 cc or 14 cc

your doctor will choose which to use during your surgery

The lapband made by Allergan comes in sizes: APS 0-10 CC and APL 0-14CC

There are several ports that can be placed with these bands the typical port is the standard profile port (14.7mm).

The REALIZE band by Johnson & Johnson is a wider band at (23 mm) with fill levels of 9CC or REALIZE band C at 11CC but the band itself is one size fits all.

Depending on the Surgeon you have and the product/s they use, it is determined at the time of surgery the size of the band you will need to work best with your anatomy.

Good luck in your journey.

Thank you Lisa, this was very helpful. I asked and I have an 11cc band.

I have a Realize band that is 10 cc's and I know my Dr. also uses the Realize band that is 15 cc's.
