The following weight loss surgeries are available to Lotus Bariatrics patients:
Gastric ballooning
During the operation, doctors install a special balloon for patients, which remains in their stomach for 6-12 months. Depending on patient´s initial weight, patient can lose 10-20 kg.
Sleeve gastrectomy
Thanks to sleeve resection, the patient needs less food to feel complete. This is due to a decrease in stomach volume by approximately 80% and a decrease in ghrelin levels. This hormone is responsible for the feeling of hunger; the upper part of the stomach produces it. The final result of the operation is visible after 6 months.
Gastric bypass and revision surgery
After the procedure, patients' food flow changes, passing only through half of the small intestine.
After bariatric surgery, approximately 20% of patients may regain weight. Clinic doctors perform revision surgical interventions on them.
The Lotus Bariatrics team of doctors has a psychologist who motivates patients to follow a diet and correct their eating habits.
