Before & After
Weight Loss Surgery
What is Weight Loss Surgery?
Weight loss surgery is a medical procedure designed to help individuals with obesity achieve significant weight loss by altering the digestive system. Common types include gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and gastric banding.
Who is Weight Loss Surgery Best For?
This surgery is ideal for individuals with a BMI of 35+ who have struggled with weight loss through diet and exercise. It is particularly beneficial for those with obesity-related health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea.
The Surgery
Depending on the procedure chosen, the surgery may involve reducing stomach size, rerouting digestion, or using a gastric band. The operation is typically performed laparoscopically and lasts 1-3 hours under general anesthesia.
After Surgery
Recovery varies based on the procedure but generally involves a gradual transition from liquid to solid foods. Patients must follow a strict diet and exercise plan. Most return to normal activities within 2-4 weeks.
Lifetime Effects
Weight loss surgery leads to significant and sustained weight loss, improving overall health and reducing obesity-related conditions. However, long-term success depends on lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and regular exercise.
