Who qualifies for the STARR treatment?
A weight loss specialist will determine if you are a suitable candidate for this procedure after examining you.
Just like any other medical intervention, the STARR treatment is only available for certain patients.
Your doctor will determine if you are a good candidate for the STARR treatment after he or she evaluates you. Patients who normally qualify for this procedure, or other bariatric surgeries, have a BMI of 30/35 or higher.
