What is the Sleeve Gastrectomy?

(also known as Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy)

​

Gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey has become the most popular choice for patients seeking excellent and permanent weight loss in a straightforward minimally invasive procedure that doesn’t require maintenance. Since 2010, gastric sleeve is the fastest growing bariatric surgical procedure and the preferred choice of doctors.  This is for several reasons but mainly because complication rates are very low, weight loss is good and surgery time is shorter than for other operations.  Surgeons want you to be successful and care about getting you healthy quickly after your gastric sleeve surgery, without problems as they know you are a future success story for them!

We all know that if you exercise and eat right you will lose weight. However, many people have tried those methods for years and still cannot achieve the desired results; in fact, only 2% of obese people will be able to lose weight in this way and achieve a healthy BMI. Being overweight puts patients at risk of serious health problems. For some people that cannot lose weight, bariatric surgery is the only option left.  Evidence shows that the gastric sleeve procedure leads to significant long term permanent loss of weight and this kind of procedure is considered the least traumatic of all the surgical procedures for obesity.
