 I did not have the procedure but I did see Dr.Pleatman for a consult.  He said he didn't like to do it because the sutures didn't usually hold in place.  Also, since I had lost a certain percentage of my body weight even though i had regain, he said he wouldnt do it on me anyways.  Even though my insurance would pay for it.  I had called BCBS and they said I qualified.  In his words, I wont fix something that isnt broken, go back and do the work...

and so, i continue on my own.  he was right at least in my case.  btw, dont ask how i'm doing lol...

sorry if i wasnt much help, i just thought i would give you an idea of what i found out.
