About REALIZE™ Band
Designed to help you achieve and maintain a healthier weight.

Your commitment to a healthy lifestyle after surgery is critical to your success, and we’ll be there for you every step of the way.

Only the REALIZE™ Personalized Banding Solution has a Web-based clinical support tool designed to help you achieve and maintain weight loss with the REALIZE™ Adjustable Gastric Band.

Support starts before your surgery to help you develop healthy habits and keep you connected to your bariatric team, especially for the critical first three years—so you're not on your own.

It's shown to be effective, too. Patients who regularly use the REALIZE mySUCCESS™ Web-based clinical support tool lose an additional 10.4% of their excess body weight after 6 months compared to those who do not.32

The REALIZE™ Band

The REALIZETM Band provides a safe and effective way to lose weight gradually—without cutting or stapling your stomach. The band limits the amount of food you can eat at one time. As a result, you feel full sooner and stay full longer. That makes it easier to adopt—and stick with—healthy eating and lifestyle habits.

Benefits

  • No band is safer or more effective for weight loss,33 based on results from a clinical trial.
  • Implanted using laparoscopic surgery, which involves small incisions. That means a shorter hospital stay, faster recovery, smaller scars, and less pain than open surgical procedures.
  • Proven results: Patients in a 3-year clinical trial lost a mean of 40 percent of their excess weight at one year and 43% at three years.33
  • Additional results: In the same clinical trial, the REALIZETM Band helped resolve 48.7% of type 2 diabetes, 78.3% of high cholesterol, and 94.6% of sleep apnea problems.33
