1.      Gastric Sleeve Surgery(also known as Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy)Gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey has become the most popular choice for patients seeking excellent and permanent weight loss in a straightforward minimally invasive procedure that doesn’t require the maintenance or have the long-term complication rates of a Lap Band or gastric bypass in Turkey.  Since 2010, gastric sleeve is the fastest growing bariatric surgical procedure and the preferred choice of doctors.  This is for several reasons but mainly because complication rates are very low, weight loss is good and surgery time is shorter than for other operations.  Surgeons want you to be successful and care about getting you healthy quickly after your gastric sleeve surgery, without problems as they know you are a future success story for them! We all know that if you  exercise and  eat right you will lose weight. However, many people have tried those methods for years and the still cannot achieve the desired results; in fact only 2% of obese people will be able to lose weight in this way and achieve a healthy BMI . Being overweight puts patients at risk of  serious health problems. For some people that cannot lose weight, bariatric surgery is the only option left.  Evidence shows  that the gastric sleeve procedure leads to significant long term permanent loss of weight and this kind of procedure is considered the least traumatic of all the surgical procedures for obesity. 

Gastric sleeve surgery is a very effective method in the fight against obesity. This process works by reducing the stomach volume and removing the hormone ghrelin, which causes an increase in appetite. As the stomach volume gets smaller, the person is sated with smaller portions and as the person’s appetite decreases, the person becomes a healthier individual by losing weight in a short time without suffering.Gastric sleeve surgery is performed with a closed method, that is without making large incisions in the abdominal region. The closed method allows the person to stand up and walk shortly after the surgery and perform daily activities by oneself. The operation takes about an hour. The leak test is performed on the second postoperative day. If no problems are detected in this test, the patient will be discharged on the same day with a diet list prepared by the dietitian.
