  1. Understanding the Different Types of Bariatric Surgery

  2. Bariatric Surgery Basics Bariatric surgery is designed to aid in significant weight loss by altering your digestive system. There are various types of bariatric procedures available. Some work by limiting how much food you can eat while others change the way your body absorbs various nutrients. A few methods cover both issues.

  3. Benefits of Bariatric Surgery Along with its cosmetic reward, losing those excess pounds also helps reduce the health risks associated with numerous obesity-linked conditions, including: • Heart disease • Stroke • High blood pressure • Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease • Sleep apnea • Type 2 diabetes

  4. Bariatric Surgery Recovery Time Most often, weight-loss surgery is done laparoscopically, which is less invasive than traditional open surgery and requires only a few small incisions in the upper abdomen. This speeds healing time and helps reduce the risk of various postsurgical complications, such as bleeding and infection at the incision site.

  5. Bariatric Surgery Types Sleeve Gastrectomy Sleeve gastrectomy reduces your stomach size by about 80%. This limits the amount of food you’re able to eat, thus greatly reducing your calorie count.

  6. Gastric Bypass Gastric bypass also alters the gut hormones that control your hunger and satiety. It has an even greater effect on blood sugar levels than sleeve gastrectomy, which significantly increases your odds of improved diabetes control. Click here to learn more!
