Highly Successful Weight Loss Surgeries

Gastric Sleeve (Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy)

Gastric Sleeve (Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy)

The gastric sleeve, or vertical sleeve gastrectomy, is a minimally invasive weight loss surgery that involves removing approximately 75–80% of the stomach. This creates a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach that holds less food, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss.

The procedure also decreases hunger by removing the part of the stomach that produces the hunger hormone, ghrelin. It does not alter the intestines, so food absorption remains normal. Most patients lose 50–70% of their excess weight within 12–18 months and experience improvement or resolution of obesity-related conditions like diabetes and hypertension.

Gastric Bypass Surgery – Roux-en-Y

Gastric Bypass Surgery – Roux-en-Y

Gastric bypass surgery is a highly effective weight loss procedure that reduces the size of the stomach and reroutes the digestive tract to limit food intake and calorie absorption.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RNY): The most common type, it involves creating a small stomach pouch and connecting it directly to the small intestine, bypassing a portion of the stomach and intestines. This reduces calorie absorption and helps patients lose 60–80% of their excess weight.

Mini Gastric Bypass: A simpler variation, this procedure creates a longer stomach pouch and bypasses a larger portion of the intestine. It has similar weight loss results but with a shorter operating time and slightly different surgical technique.

Both surgeries can improve or resolve conditions like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea.

Details
Revision Weight Loss Surgery

Revision Weight Loss Surgery

Revision weight loss surgery is performed to address complications or insufficient weight loss from a previous bariatric procedure. Common reasons for revisions include weight regain, unresolved obesity-related conditions, or issues such as gastric band slippage, pouch stretching, or severe acid reflux.

Revisions may involve converting the original procedure (e.g., gastric band to sleeve or bypass) or correcting the existing surgery. Options include gastric sleeve revision, converting a sleeve to a gastric bypass, or addressing complications in bypass or duodenal switch patients.

This type of surgery is more complex and tailored to each patient’s specific needs. It requires a thorough evaluation by an experienced bariatric surgeon to determine the best course of action.

Duodenal Switch – DS

Duodenal Switch – DS

The Duodenal Switch (DS) is a complex but highly effective weight loss surgery that combines two approaches: restrictive and malabsorptive. It involves removing a large portion of the stomach to create a sleeve-shaped stomach, similar to a gastric sleeve, while also rerouting the intestines to limit calorie and fat absorption.

This procedure results in significant weight loss, with patients typically losing 70–85% of their excess weight. It is particularly effective for individuals with severe obesity or those with obesity-related conditions like type 2 diabetes, as it has the highest success rates for long-term weight loss and improvement of metabolic conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ What is weight loss surgery, and how does it work?
Weight loss surgery, also known as bariatric surgery, helps people with obesity lose weight by making changes to the stomach and/or digestive system to limit food intake or absorption. Common types include gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and duodenal switch.
+ Am I a candidate for weight loss surgery?
Candidates typically have a BMI of 30 or higher or a lessor BMI is sometimes allowed with obesity-related health conditions such as diabetes. You should also have a history of unsuccessful weight loss through diet and exercise.
+ What are the different types of weight loss surgery?
The most common procedures include:
  • Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y): Reduces stomach size and reroutes part of the small intestine.
  • Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy): Removes a portion of the stomach to limit food intake.
  • Duodenal Switch: A more complex surgery combining sleeve gastrectomy and intestinal bypass.
+ What are the risks and complications of weight loss surgery?
While bariatric surgery is generally safe, risks include infection, blood clots, nutritional deficiencies, or complications from anesthesia. Long-term risks may include bowel obstruction, ulcers, or the need for revision surgery.
+ How much weight can I expect to lose after surgery?
Weight loss results vary based on the procedure and individual factors, but patients in a worldwide statistic typically lose 50–70% of their excess weight within the first 18 months post-surgery. Many of our patients report being at goal within 12 months.
+ What lifestyle changes are required after weight loss surgery?
Post-surgery, patients must commit to:
  • A healthy, protein-rich diet.
  • Regular exercise.
  • Avoiding certain foods like sugar and high-fat items.
  • Taking prescribed vitamin and mineral supplements for life.
+ Will my insurance cover weight loss surgery?
Many insurance plans don't cover bariatric surgery but there are a few that will if you meet specific medical criteria. Medicare with Parts A & B is one of that will with a BMI of at least 35 and obesity related health issues. Coverage often requires documentation of failed weight loss attempts, nutritional counseling, and psychological evaluation.
+ How long does recovery take after weight loss surgery?
Recovery times vary by procedure but generally range from 2–6 weeks. Most patients return to work within 1–2 weeks for laparoscopic procedures but should avoid strenuous activities during the recovery period.
+ Is it safe to travel for weight loss surgery?
Yes, it can be safe to travel for weight loss surgery if you choose a reputable surgeon and facility. Research the surgeon’s credentials, facility accreditation, and patient reviews to ensure quality care. Follow all pre- and post-operative instructions carefully.
