Metabolic & bariatric care · Austin, South Austin & Cedar Park
Metabolic and bariatric surgery may be considered at NuSelf with a BMI over 30 and an obesity-related condition, or over 35 without one. Your consultation turns these starting criteria into a personal plan.
At NuSelf, primary metabolic and bariatric surgery may be considered with a BMI over 30 when an obesity-related condition is present, or a BMI over 35 without an associated condition. Conditions such as type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea and high blood pressure are part of your evaluation. We consider your health, previous treatment and readiness for long-term follow-up together. Insurance plans may apply different coverage requirements.
Medical weight-loss treatment may be considered at BMI 30 or higher, or BMI 27 or higher with a weight-related condition. Endoscopic treatments and gastric balloons have product-specific criteria. Allurion’s U.S. indication is ages 22–65 with BMI 30–40 after at least one unsuccessful weight-loss program. Your consultation compares the approaches appropriate to your health.
Revision eligibility is individualized. Your previous operation, symptoms, reflux, nutritional status, weight response and metabolic health guide the evaluation. Primary-surgery BMI thresholds alone do not determine whether revision is appropriate. Dr. Ganta reviews your records and anatomy to recommend a plan suited to your clinical needs.
