Take Control of Your Weight
If your original bariatric procedure did not deliver the expected results, or if you are experiencing complications, you are not alone.

At our Tijuana surgical center, we perform complex bariatric revision procedures with careful evaluation and advanced surgical planning.
What Is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
Bariatric revision surgery is a corrective or conversion procedure performed after an initial weight loss surgery.
Revisions may be necessary when:
- Limiting the amount of food you can eat
- Reducing production of ghrelin (the hunger hormone)
- Helping you feel full faster
- Improving metabolic response
Revision surgery requires greater expertise than primary bariatric surgery. Every case is unique and must be evaluated carefully.

What is bariatric revision surgery?
Bariatric revision surgery corrects or converts a previous weight loss procedure after weight regain or complications, such as converting a sleeve to a bypass or removing a lap band.
Why might I need a revision?
Common reasons include weight regain, inadequate weight loss, or ongoing reflux. A surgeon reviews your history to recommend the best option.
How much does revision surgery in Mexico cost?
Pricing depends on the original procedure and the revision required. Lighter Dream provides a personalized quote after a consultation.
Is revision surgery more complex than the first surgery?
