Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery, also known as metabolic surgery, is a medical term describing various procedures used to manage obesity and related conditions. It involves modifying the digestive system to facilitate weight loss. Bariatric surgery is considered when conventional approaches such as diet and exercise prove ineffective or when serious health issues arise due to excess weight. Long-term weight loss through bariatric surgery is achieved by altering gut hormones, physically reducing stomach size, and decreasing nutrient absorption. In addition to weight reduction, these procedures also lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, depression syndromes, among other conditions.
