Types of weight loss surgery

Bariatric Surgical Procedures we offer:

  • Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
  • Laparoscopic Mini Gastric Bypass
  • Laparoscopic Revision Bariatric Surgery Procedures
  • Laparoscopic Surgery for Reflux Post Bariatric Surgery
  • Laparoscopic band removal
  • Laparoscopic Diabetic cure surgery
    • The choices available for your bariatric surgery range from permanent to fully reversible, so it is important to understand what would be your best option.
  • Gastric sleeve surgery, also called sleeve gastrectomy, is a surgical procedure that removes approximately 80% of the stomach, transforming it into a gastric sleeve or tube, which significantly reduces how much food you can eat. It is a permanent procedure that can help you quickly lose weight and maintain the results.
  • Gastric bypass surgery, also known as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, is a procedure that creates a small pouch from the stomach that attaches directly to the small intestines, bypassing the larger portion of the stomach. A gastric bypass reduces your ability to absorb food, which results in effective weight loss. Like gastric sleeve surgery, gastric bypass is irreversible.
  • Mini gastric bypass is a modified type of gastric bypass surgery and also creates a small pouch. However, it is less invasive than a gastric bypass and is reversible.
  • Gastric balloon, also referred to as a stomach balloon or weight loss balloon, is a non-surgical weight loss option for those who are struggling with obesity but cannot undergo surgery. A soft weight loss balloon is inserted into your stomach using an endoscope and then filled with saline. The stomach balloon greatly reduces your appetite, helping you reduce your food consumption and adopt new eating habits. Once you reach your target weight, the gastric balloon is removed.
    • Weight loss surgery has been carefully studied and repeatedly found to be safe and effective. However, no surgery or procedure is entirely free of risk. Some risks associated with bariatric surgery include:
  • Infection
  • Acid reflux
  • Ulcers
    • Choosing an experienced bariatric surgery specialist can reduce these risks.
    Though many people may be overweight, bariatric surgery is reserved for patients experiencing significant issues with their weight. Generally, weight loss surgery is appropriate if you:
  • Have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher
  • Have a BMI between 35 to 39.9 and a serious health condition
  • Have a unique situation where your BMI is between 30 and 34, and you have a serious health issue
    • If your weight is causing health problems, then weight loss surgery may be your solution. Some obesity-related medical issues include:
  • Stroke
  • Heart attack
  • Heart disease
  • Sleep apnea
  • Hypertension
  • High cholesterol
  • Type 2 diabetes
    • At Saudi German Hospital – Ajman, we understand the physical and emotional issues that obesity can cause. We offer a range of options, from gastric bypass surgery to gastric balloon in Ajman.
