What is
Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery, often referred to as weight loss surgery, is a medical procedure designed to help individuals who are struggling with obesity achieve significant and sustainable weight loss. If you’ve tried dieting, exercise, and other methods without lasting success, bariatric surgery could be the solution you’ve been looking for.
How Does It Work?
Bariatric surgery works by altering the digestive system in a way that limits the amount of food you can eat and/or the nutrients your body absorbs. The most common types of bariatric surgery include gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and adjustable gastric banding. Each of these procedures helps you lose weight by either reducing the size of your stomach.
Who is it For?
This type of surgery is typically recommended for individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 35 or higher who are also facing serious health issues like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea. The benefits of bariatric surgery extend far beyond just weight loss. Many patients experience a dramatic improvement in obesity-related conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and joint pain. Additionally, weight loss surgery can enhance your quality of life, boost your energy levels, and increase your confidence.
