Gastric Sleeve:
How Does It Work?
Like gastric bypass, gastric sleeve surgery is a bariatric procedure that modifies the stomach to help obese patients lose weight. During the surgery, about 80% of the stomach is removed, giving it the appearance of a sleeve.
Because your stomach is much smaller afterward, gastric sleeve surgery restricts the amount of food you can consume and helps you feel fuller after eating far less food than usual. It also lowers the amount of ghrelin you produce, which can reduce your desire to eat.
Gastric sleeve surgery can help patients lose up to 80% of their excess body weight in 6-12 months, but your results will depend heavily on the lifestyle changes you make after your surgery.
Candidates for Sleeve Gastrectomy
Candidates for this weight loss surgery include those who:
- Are healthy enough to undergo surgery
- Do not have significant acid reflux
- Have tried diet and exercise with no success
- Have a BMI of 40 or higher
- Have a BMI of 35 or higher with a weight-related medical condition like sleep apnea, type 2 diabetes, or hypertension

"My husband had gastric sleeve surgery September 2022, our experience was above and beyond what we both had imagined. The staff was very professional and kind, hospital was clean and his room was spacious. I even had a place to stay with him. The transfers to and from were on time, and the hotel was as clean, beautiful, and had good food!"

The Difference Laparoscopic Surgery Can Make Using the Latest Techniques for Improved Outcomes
Our surgeons use single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) for procedures like gastric sleeve to improve healing and recovery times, reduce the risk of infection, and lower postoperative pain and discomfort. With SILS, the entire sleeve gastrectomy can be performed through one incision in the belly button, so patients also don't have to worry about covering up scars on their abdomen after surgery. They can go shirtless, wear crop tops, or try out bathing suits with confidence.
Achieving Healthy Weight Loss
and Maintaining Your Results
After your sleeve gastrectomy, there are some steps you can take to aid in your weight loss and contribute to long-term success. These include:
Follow Postoperative Care Instructions
You will be provided with postoperative instructions that you should follow to ensure a safe recovery and the best results. These instructions will include following a liquid diet and resting for several days.
Eat a Healthy Diet
Our packages include a consultation with a trained nutritionist. Once you're eating regular foods again, a healthy diet will help ensure you are getting the vitamins and nutrients you need to maintain a healthy body and contribute to sustainable weight loss. You will also be required to take protein, vitamin, and mineral supplements for a set period of time.
Exercise Regularly
Once you're cleared by your doctor, simple exercises like walking will help improve your stamina and prevent serious complications like blood clots. Slowly increasing the intensity of your workouts will help you lose weight faster and keep it off.
