About MWLS
At Melbourne Weight Loss Solutions, we believe lasting results come from more than just surgery. That’s why we bring together surgeons, physicians, dietitians, and psychologists in one place — giving you the tools, knowledge, and support to succeed long-term.
There are different types of weight loss surgery.
The best option for you depends on your health, weight loss goals, and medical history.
In your initial consultation, our surgeons can help guide you through your options and recommend the best choice for your situation.
Weight Loss Surgery Types
-
A portion of the outer part of the stomach is surgically removed, leaving behind a banana-shaped pouch.
-
The top part of the stomach is reformed into a small pouch and joined to the middle part of the intestine, ‘bypassing’ the first part of the intestine. This type is called a Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass [RYGB].
-
Converting an existing weight loss surgery to a new one. Most often converting a gastric band to a gastric bypass.
-
The top part of the stomach is reformed into a small tube and joined to the middle part of the intestine, ‘bypassing’ a greater portion of the intestine than a Roux-En-Y. This type is called a One-Anastamosis Gastric Bypass, but sometimes referred to as a Mini-Byoass.
