Gastric Sleeve Surgery In Tijuana

FROM PREVIOUS PATIENTS

Obesity can be a real struggle, keeping you from doing what you want to do and jeopardizing your health. Diets and exercise programs are not always enough, and if they haven’t been effective for you so far, gastric sleeve surgery might be the solution!

This minimally invasive procedure removes almost 80% of your stomach, so you feel full faster and absorb fewer calories from your food. Gastric sleeve surgery also removes the part of your stomach responsible for producing ghrelin (the hormone that makes you hungry), giving you back control of your appetite and reducing your hunger pangs.

If you have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or over, gastric sleeve surgery in Mexico provides a lasting solution that can end your struggle to maintain a healthy weight.

HOW DOES GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY WORK?

Gastric sleeve surgery — also known as a vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) — is a bariatric weight loss procedure that reduces the size of the stomach by approximately 80% and reshapes it into a tube-like structure that resembles a banana. Not only does this mean you will feel full after consuming less food, but gastric sleeve surgery also limits the absorption of dietary fat and calories from food. Gastric sleeve surgery works in a few different ways:
Bariatric Surgery in Tijuana - Bariatric Surgery in Tijuana - Cirugía Bariátrica en Tijuana
  • Your "new" stomach is substantially smaller, limiting the amount of food you need to eat to feel full.
  • It limits the absorption of dietary fat and calories from food.
  • The ghrelin-producing portion of your stomach is removed, reducing hunger pangs.
  • It improves leptin levels, which is the satiety hormone that makes you feel full.
  • It speeds up gastric emptying.

Weight Loss Expectations From Gastric Sleeve Surgery

Typically, you can expect to lose approximately 60% of your excess weight within one year after your gastric sleeve procedure. You are expected to continue losing weight up until 18-24 months post-op. Keep in mind, weight loss isn’t the only benefit of bariatric weight loss surgery. More importantly, you can avoid or reverse the numerous health hazards associated with obesity.

Research into improvements in obesity-related health conditions following gastric sleeve surgery indicates:

QUOTE TODAY
  • Nearly 80% of patients with type 2 diabetes go into remission, with an additional 15% seeing an improvement.
  • 80-85% of patients experience sleep apnea remission approximately one year after surgery.
  • 30% of patients report a decrease in depression at the time of surgery and a 16.5% decrease between six to 12 months after surgery.
  • 77% of patients with high cholesterol or high blood pressure go into remission.

However, gastric sleeve surgery in Mexico will only be worthwhile if you:

  • Make wise dietary decisions and follow the food plan that has been recommended
  • Maintain a regular exercise regimen
  • Address emotional difficulties that can lead to overeating.

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Gastric Sleeve Surgery

Gastric sleeve surgery is a safe, minimally invasive, and successful weight loss surgery procedure. Some of the advantages include but are not limited to:

  • Reduction or reversal of obesity-related health issues such as hypertension, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and depression.
  • Reduced risk of vitamin or nutritional deficiency compared to other bariatric procedures.
  • A simpler procedure with fewer associated risks and complications when compared to gastric bypass surgery
  • The ability to have a gastric bypass (Roux-En-Y) at a later date if desired.
QUOTE TODAY

Every type of weight loss surgery has risks and drawbacks. Here are some of the disadvantages of gastric sleeve surgery:

  • You are at higher risk of developing a hernia.
  • It may induce gastroesophageal reflux (heartburn).
  • It requires dietary adherence, supplements, and monitoring.

How Gastric Sleeve Surgery Is Performed

Rest assured that your procedure will be as pain-free and comfortable as possible! You’ll be given a general anesthetic, which makes the experience seem like taking a long, deep nap. You won’t feel any discomfort during the operation and once complete, you will simply wake up in recovery.

BSB’s experienced surgeons perform all gastric sleeve surgery laparoscopically (without making large incisions), and normally, surgery is complete within 60 to 90 minutes.

Your surgeon will make one to five tiny incisions in your stomach and insert trocars (hollow tubes) to accommodate surgical instruments. They will then pump CO2 gas into your stomach to provide more space for the surgeon to work.

Your surgeon will insert a laparoscope (a probe with a tiny camera) into your stomach. This is attached to a display monitor, which enables the surgeon to see your stomach clearly while performing the surgery.

The surgeon removes approximately 80% of your stomach and fuses the remaining section using surgical staples. Your “new stomach” will look like a single banana-shaped vertical tube.

Your surgeon will place a drain in the abdominal cavity to detect early leakage before stitching the external incisions with dissolvable sutures. The drain will be removed before you are discharged from the hospital.

At BSB, your health and safety are of the utmost importance, which is why we provide a comprehensive list of pathology tests for you to complete before you depart for your gastric sleeve surgery in Mexico. You will arrive the day before your bariatric surgery and have pathology tests and an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) to ensure you are fit for surgery.

Our weight loss surgery patient process guarantees you’ll be comfortable and prepared when it’s time for your surgery. After your procedure, an experienced medical team will attend to all your post-operative needs, including running several leak tests before they safely discharge you.

You won’t have anything but peace of mind while being taken care of at BSB. We guarantee top-quality care equal to or better than what is offered here in the U.S.!

Our financing options make bariatric surgery simple and accessible, so there is no need to delay your weight loss journey any longer.
