Bariatric Surgery
Report
Weight loss surgery is known as bariatric surgery and involves surgical procedures done on the stomach and/or intestines to help a person lose weight. This is usually considered an option for persons who have a Body Mass Index (BMI) above 40. It is also an option for people with a BMI of 35 to 40 who are experiencing serious health problems as a direct result of the obesity such as Type II diabetes, sleep apnea, or heart disease.
Gastric Bypass
Report
The Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass has long been considered the "gold standard" for obesity surgery, and, depending on your unique needs, the gastric bypass can be an excellent tool for gaining long-term control of weight. The gastric bypass procedure accomplishes weight loss in two distinct ways. First, through restriction, or limiting the volume of food intake, which creates a sense of satiety (fullness) with very small meals.
Gastric Sleeve
Report
The Gastric Sleeve procedure, also known as sleeve gastrectomy or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), reduces weight primarily through restriction, or creating a smaller stomach. Through good nutrition and smaller portion sizes, patients lose weight while having a feeling of fullness.
Secondarily, the gastric sleeve is thought to significantly reduce the production of the "hunger hormone" ghrelin, which reduces the amount of hunger patients feel after surgery.Depending on your unique needs, the sleeve gastrectomy can be an excellent tool for gaining long-term control of weight.
