Overview of Gastric Sleeve Surgery
Gastric sleeve is a restrictive obesity surgical procedure which aims to combat obesity by reducing the capacity of the stomach to hold food.
In this procedure, the stomach is reduced to nearly a fourth of its original size.
The surgery is performed laparoscopically, which means it is minimally invasive. Special laparoscopic surgery tools and a tiny camera are placed through the small incisions made in the abdomen.
With nearly 75% of it removed, the new stomach resembles a tube, banana, or a sleeve. Because of the reduced stomach capacity, you feel full after eating much smaller quantities of food.
Please take note that a gastric sleeve surgery warrants commitment to serious lifestyle changes. It is not a short-cut to weight loss. You will have to reduce the portion sizes of food you have and also incorporate exercise in your routine.
