imageDescription

  • Gastric sleeve surgery is a weight loss procedure where about 75–80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a smaller, tube-shaped stomach. This helps reduce appetite and food intake. It’s usually done laparoscopically and can lead to significant weight loss, while also improving conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea.

imageHow it works

  • The surgeon removes a significant portion of the stomach, leaving a sleeve-like structure. The procedure is typically performed laparoscopically (minimally invasive), which diminishes recovery time and scarting. The stomach's ability to intake the food inside is significantly reduced, which decreases the amount of food consumed.

imageWho It’s For:

  • Individuals with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 40 or higher. Those with a BMI of 35 or higher and obesity-related health conditions like diabetes or hypertension. Individuals who have tried and failed to lose weight through diet and exercise.

Important Considerations and Recovery

While gastric sleeve surgery offers remarkable benefits, it's essential to understand the commitments involved:

  • Irreversibility: The procedure permanently removes a large portion of the stomach and cannot be undone.

  • Lifelong Commitment: Sustained weight loss requires permanent adherence to dietary guidelines, regular exercise, and healthy habits.

  • Nutritional Monitoring: Although less common than with bypass surgery, monitoring for potential vitamin and mineral deficiencies is important. Supplements may be recommended.

  • Recovery: Initial recovery involves a liquid and then soft food diet. Most patients return to work and light activities within 2-4 weeks, with full recovery taking several months.
