What is Gastric Sleeve surgery?
Gastric Sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve Gastrectomy, is a surgical procedure that involves reducing the size of the stomach to promote weight loss.
During the procedure, a large portion of the stomach is removed, leaving behind a smaller banana shaped sleeve. This reduction in stomach size helps limit food intake and promotes a feeling of fullness, leading to reduced hinger and improved portion control. Gastric sleeve surgery not only aids in weigh loss but also offers potential health benefits, such as improved blood sugar control and reduced risk of obesity-related conditions. With its proven effectiveness and low complication rates, gastric sleeve surgery has become a popular choice for those seeking a sustainable solution to obesity.
