  • I had RNY Gastric Bypass on December 1, 2020 at Mexico Bariatric Center in Tijuana Mexico with Dr. Rodriguez Lopez. By observation, it seems the two topics people are most worried about after surgery are hair loss, and loose skin. So what's the deal with the hair loss, why does it happen, and what can you do about it?

    Thank you so much for this video. I had gastric bypass in October and my hair loss has just started to slow down. Yes, I lost a lot of hair and my hair looked like it was getting thin. But you know what, so am I!!! I’m down 84 lbs and would do it all over again.

    Thank you so much for this video. I'm going through it now and it is upsetting. I'm 6 months post op and it's good to know it will get better, thank you!

    I lost hair during my WW years from just regular weight loss. People freak out after WLS but its because its the hyper-focused topic. It was never even discussed at WW, we were just worried about finding the lowest zero point salad dressing on the shelf. Great video!

    Wow great info! Thank you, you explained this so well & now can visualize this when it happens 👍🏻

    Always use a microfiber towel and comb your hair with a large comb not a brush!! Make sure you take your vitamins! Do not dye your hair during this process. Keep it chemical free. My hair is to my waist. I had sleeve 8 months ago and some has thinned but I’m doing as much as possible to keep from losing as much as I can ❤

    You're so close to 1000 subs! MY hair loss started way later then everyone's that I had seen mention it. It went on for three months and it forced me to wash my hair way less and my hair looks so much healthier then it had. i still have super oily hair but baby power takes care of that.

    I lose as much as your hair ball every time I brush my hair. Thank goodness I started with a load of thick hair. I just hope it slows down soon because it’s getting thin now.

    Corn on the cob is just starch. Corn isn't even digestible, unless you eat it in the milk-stage, before being ripe. It just tastes good.

    Awesome video! Pixie cut works for me! My hair was thin before surgery!

    Reddit sent me here. So informational, thanks. I'm almost 3 months PO and I just started noticing really bad hair loss. I'm thinking about cutting it really short, pixie or bob. Still debating haha. Do you think dying it will make it worse?

    I have naturally EXTREMELY thick hair and I always would complain how long it took to wash and dry and style. Every stylist I’ve gone to has basically charged me double for the service. But now Ive lost 75% of my hair… and still falling. I hate this surgery in every form of its existence. I feel terrible all the time.. my knees don’t hurt anymore from my weight but that’s all.
