4cc or 10cm..which one

[skinnyagain]

I always thought I had a 4cc band...Well I was diggin in my purse and looked at my card...It says Lap-Band 10.0cm

Ref B-20220 sn 13902273...So does that mean its 10cm around with a restriction capacity 10 cc, or 4cc..No where on the ID card does it say 4cc, I always thought I had a 4cc....Confused now!

I got confused as well. 10cm = 4cc.

It was explained to me that there is a difference between 10"cc" instead of 10"cm".

Does that help?

My band is a 10 cm 4 cc band. I suppose yours is too. The larger bands are 10 cc.

I have an 11 cc band

So I went to the OCC this past weekend and I asked Dr. So this question.

He said ( I may be a little off) the 4cc band is 10cm in diameter.

and the 10cc band is 11cm in diameter...
