With the average patient losing up to 40% of their excess weight over a year, Lap Band focuses on restricting the amount of food you consume. We place a small inflatable belt around the upper part of the stomach, slowing down the stomach’s ability to empty food. This helps you maintain a feeling of being full.

Dr. Aaron Cernero serves patients in and around his hometown of Denison, Texas. He provides the kind of care he would want for his own family. He’s established a practice where individuals can heal and grow.
More than just talking to our patients, we listen to their concerns. It’s the first step and, in our professional opinion, one of the most important.
A lap band procedure involves the placement of a belt around the upper part of your stomach. Inserted by Dr. Cernero, this belt works to limit the amount of food your stomach is able to hold. The stomach empties itself at a slower pace as a result.
Lap band is also adjustable, making this a procedure that we can tailor to your individual needs.
Lap band is a weight loss option for patients looking to reduce the size of their stomach specifically. Patients who also struggle to lose weight are also good candidates for this procedure. If you’re 18 years old or older and you’re considering lap band in Denison, give us a call to schedule your consultation.
The results of lap band can be potentially permanent. The belt is adjustable and the procedure can be reversed. In order to maintain the results of receiving lap band in Denison, you’ll want to make sure you come in for routine visits to ensure the belt is working as it should.
