GASTRIC SLEEVE

Picture
A Sleeve Gastrectomy or gastric sleeve procedure is a restrictive procedure which removes about 75% to 80% of your stomach to form a thin tube-like structure.

Food enters the new stomach pouch/tube and then follows a normal route into the digestive tract. Removal of this part of the stomach can reduce hunger as it removes cells that produce a hunger-stimulating hormone called ghrelin which means that your appetite is reduced. The reduced stomach size following a sleeve gastrectomy helps to keep a feeling of fullness for longer.
The Sleeve Gastrectomy procedure delivers excellent weight loss results and improvements to health and quality of life, making it the fastest growing weight loss procedure in the world. Most patients lose between 50-75% of their excess weight. Speak to your Dietitian if you are not sure what your excess weight is.

The Sleeve Gastrectomy however, is a non-reversible procedure and can carry the potential for long-term vitamin deficiencies if the correct supplementation is not taken.
​
Having Bariatric surgery is life changing. It’s important to understand exactly what’s involved in the procedure, including any potential complications and what to expect afterwards. Having said that, surgery can be extremely successful for those who are willing to make long term consistent changes to their diet and lifestyle.
