Procedure Information

Sleeve Gastrectomy

A weight loss surgery procedure offered at Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery. Listed as one of the primary surgical weight loss options.

Mini Gastric Bypass / One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass

A weight loss surgery procedure offered at Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery as an alternative bypass option.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

A weight loss surgery procedure offered at Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery.

Allurion Gastric Balloon

A non-surgical procedure involving placing a small balloon in the stomach. The balloon is placed with the help of a small pill, which is simply swallowed by the patient in a guided procedure. Once in the stomach, the balloon opens up and is filled with water. The balloon eventually dissolves and passes through the body in a normal bowel movement. The balloon helps you feel fuller with smaller portions, which means that you avoid snacking.

Non-Surgical Weight Loss

Includes weight loss medication programs designed to work in harmony with the body's natural processes, gastric balloons, and nutritional & lifestyle support including personalised nutritional guidance, exercise plans, and behavioural strategies.

Lap Band Revision Surgery

A revision surgery procedure offered at Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery for patients with existing lap bands.

Sleeve Revision Surgery

A revision surgery procedure offered at Brisbane General & Obesity Surgery for patients with previous sleeve gastrectomy.
