- Weight loss is less than 50% than expected
- Weight is lost but after a short time it is recovered (partially or totally)
- The patient is intolerant to solid foods when he should already tolerate them.
- The patient's quality of life decreases, instead of improving.
- There are complications or disorders caused by the first bariatric surgery.
Your bariatric surgeon will also determine why the surgery failed. There are numerous reasons why a bariatric procedure can fail, consequently preventing a patient from achieving goals like losing weight or improving their health.
