mrios1029 0 Posted April 25, 2012 Hi I've been considering having a revision since I haven't lost much weight and a doctor told me me sleeve was big. Has anybody been resleeved in Mexico ? Who did you use ? And how much was the revision ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deltadawn817 106 Posted April 25, 2012 I have been sleeved in mexico and I know that if I wasn't loosing I could go back and they would tighten me up for free I would just have to pay hotel and airfare. The office has already done this for the plicators. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted April 25, 2012 Wow I hadn't even thought of that. Thats considerable! I mostly thought down the line if I had to I could revise to RnY or DS... however just to have my sleeve re-done would be ideal! Good luck in your research, I'm not sure who does do this.

BeautyVGSJourney 99 Posted April 25, 2012 Do you know what size is your stomach now? how long ago was your surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5DogMa 62 Posted April 25, 2012 Wow, I have not heard of a re-sleeve surgery. Why do they do that? Does the stomach stretch out so much that you would need it done again? I sure don't want to go through this again. Guess I better be really careful not to stretch out my sleeve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sure don't want to go through this again. Guess I better be really careful not to stretch out my sleeve? It takes a long time for the stomach to be streched, but its definetly possible. Its actually more likely that the first time they did the surgery they used a very big buggie for the sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
