Treatment & Follow up

Gastric sleeve surgery involves a laparoscopic or minimally invasive procedure to reduce the size of the stomach and regulate hunger hormones. To perform this procedure, your bariatric surgeon will make a vertical incision and staple the stomach to create the sleeve, which resembles a banana-sized tube, and remove the larger portion of the stomach.

The surgery usually lasts between one and two hours. After the surgery, you will wake up in a recovery room, where medical staff will monitor you for any complications.

After your surgery you will be closely monitored with the support of our multidisciplinary team. The nutritionist will be a fundamental part of your recovery and key to the success of your weight loss.

Adopting a healthy lifestyle is essential.
