Choosing the right bariatric option for you
Sleeve Gastrectomy
A sleeve gastrectomy involves reducing the size of the stomach to help promote weight loss. By creating a smaller stomach pouch, the amount of food that can be consumed is limited, leading to feelings of fullness and a decrease in appetite. Sleeve gastrectomy is known to have long-term effects and can significantly contribute to weight loss over time.
Mini Gastric Bypass
A mini gastric bypass combines both restriction and malabsorption techniques. It involves creating a small stomach pouch and rerouting the digestive tract. By reducing the amount of food that can be eaten and altering the way nutrients are absorbed, mini gastric bypass can assist individuals in achieving weight loss goals.
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
A Roux-en-Y gastric combines both restriction and malabsorption techniques. involves creating a small stomach pouch and rearranging the digestive system to bypass a portion of the small intestine. By limiting food intake and altering the absorption of calories and nutrients, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass can lead to substantial weight loss.
