Medically Supervised Surgical Care for Weight Management
Bariatric surgery is the surgical treatment of severe obesity and related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnoea, and fatty liver. Procedures including sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, and mini gastric bypass are performed laparoscopically to reduce stomach capacity and alter hormones that control hunger. With nutrition and lifestyle support, it delivers sustained weight loss and better metabolic health.
Bariatric surgery is a set of weight-loss surgeries performed to make changes in the digestive system and help one to lose weight. This helps to limit the amount of food one intake and helps to lose weight. These surgeries are performed when diet or exercise plans have not worked or when a person is suffering from serious health conditions as a result of their weight.
We perform the following types of Bariatric Surgery:
It is ideal for people who are severely obese (BMI of 35 or more) and are not able to lose weight even after serious non-surgical weight loss attempts.
In this surgery, a large segment of the stomach is removed through a small incision and part of the stomach that creates hunger-producing hormone (Ghrelin) is removed and as a result, the candidate achieves diminished appetite hence less food intake.
The surgery offers several benefits like faster weight loss, fewer food intolerances than with gastric bands, and No device is implanted with the gastric sleeve.
It is ideal for people who are severely obese (BMI of 35 or more) and are not able to lose weight even after serious non-surgical weight loss attempts.
In this surgery, a gastric band is placed around the stomach and this creates a small stomach pouch. The surgery works by limiting food intake, reducing appetite, and slowing digestion.
The benefits of this surgery are no stomach stapling or intestinal rerouting, fast recovery time, and it also offers an adjustable and reversible bariatric surgery option.
