Gastric Sleeve Surgery: A Life-Changing Weight Loss Solution

What is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

Gastric Sleeve surgery, also known as Sleeve Gastrectomy, is a minimally invasive weight-loss procedure where approximately 80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a smaller, tube-shaped stomach. This significantly reduces food intake, helps control hunger, and promotes sustainable, long-term weight loss.

How Does Gastric Sleeve Work?

• Reduces stomach size to limit food consumption

• Lowers hunger hormone (ghrelin) production for better appetite control

• Encourages rapid weight loss within the first 6-12 months

• Improves obesity-related health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea

Benefits of Gastric Sleeve Surgery

✔ Significant weight loss (60-70% of excess weight within a year) ✔ Minimally invasive procedure with small incisions and faster recovery ✔ No foreign objects (unlike gastric band) ✔ Reduced risk of nutrient deficiencies compared to other bariatric surgeries ✔ Enhanced quality of life with improved energy, mobility, and confidence
