14 cc band?



Recommended Posts

Yesterday during my fill, I asked the nurse what size band I had received and she told me that I had a 14 cc band. Has anyone heard of this size? I thought the large band was 10 cc (Vanguard).

Allergan now has two new size bands, the APS and APL bands hold 10.0CCs and 14.0CCs of saline, respectively.

It sounds like you have an APL band.

I have the APL 14cc band. I have no idea what this means, but I do know that's what is sitting inside me right now! My first fill is 10/17. I'm 5 days out from banding and waiting for the exhaustion and soreness to go away :)

That means you have the advanced platform large size band, which holds a maximum of 14.0CCs os saline.

RE: Fatigue, give it a few days, you just had major surgery!
