Sleeve Gastrectomy: An Effective Weight Loss Surgery at Canadian Specialist Hospital Dubai
Sleeve gastrectomy is a surgical procedure that can help people with severe obesity lose a significant amount of weight. During the operation, the surgeon removes about 80% of the stomach, leaving a smaller, sleeve-shaped pouch.
Key Benefits of Sleeve Gastrectomy:
Substantial weight loss: You can expect to typically lose 40-70% of your excess body weight in the first year after surgery.
Improved health: Sleeve gastrectomy can help you manage conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea.
Reduced hunger: The procedure changes hormone signals that control appetite, helping you feel fuller with less food.
What to Expect:
The surgery is usually performed laparoscopically, using small incisions, which allows for a faster recovery.
After the procedure, you must follow a specific diet plan and take vitamin supplements for life.
As with any major surgery, there are some risks, such as bleeding, infection, and leaks from the staple line. These complications are uncommon but require close monitoring.
If you are struggling with severe obesity and have tried other weight loss methods without success, sleeve gastrectomy is an option worth discussing with your healthcare provider.
