How Weight Loss Surgery Restores General Health

Bariatric surgery is not merely cosmetic. It is a metabolic intervention that resolves chronic conditions including type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular issues, joint pain, and sleep apnea.

Laparoscopic Gastric Sleeve

This procedure removes roughly 80% of the stomach, converting it to a narrow sleeve. This severely limits food intake and alters hormone production (ghrelin) to suppress hunger signals. Laparoscopy ensures minimal scarring and fast recovery, and is a key part of our Bariatric Surgery & Gastric Sleeve packages in Turkey.

Gastric Bypass

A dual-action surgery that reduces stomach capacity and bypasses a segment of the small intestine to minimize calorie absorption. This is highly recommended for patients with metabolic syndromes or severe GERD.

Post-Bariatric Dietary Protocol

  • Phase 1: Clear liquids and nutrient-rich broths during the first week.
  • Phase 2: Pureed proteins, cooked eggs, and soft cheeses.
  • Phase 3: Controlled portion sizes with mandatory daily vitamin supplementation.
