Sleeve gastrectomy is a restrictive form of weight loss surgery in
which approximately 85% of the stomach is removed leaving a
cylindrical or sleeve shaped stomach with a capacity ranging from
about 60 to 150 cc, depending upon the surgeon performing the
procedure.
Unlike many other forms of bariatric surgery, the outlet valve and
the nerves to the stomach remain intact and, while the stomach is
drastically reduced in size, its function is preserved.
Again, unlike other forms of surgery such as the Roux en Y gastric
bypass, the sleeve gastrectomy is not reversible.

The band can be adjusted according to your necessities allowing a very small amount of food to pass to the rest of the stomach and making you feel full and without hungry.
The adjustment is done in the radiology department and is a very simple procedure consisting in inflate or deflate the band with saline solution through a small device placed under your belly skin.
