Weight Loss Surgery Options

The main goal of bariatric surgery is to limit the amount of food you can eat in one sitting, and there are a few different ways to achieve that goal. The most popular choices for weight loss surgery in Guadalajara are:

• Gastric Bypass: In this surgery, the stomach is divided into two sections. The upper section ends up being the size of a walnut and therefore limits the amount of food one can eat. Food bypasses the larger section of the stomach and goes directly to the small intestine from the smaller pouch.
• Gastric Banding: Gastric banding also converts part of the stomach into a tiny pouch, but uses an adjustable silicone band to do so. The resulting pouch can usually hold little quantity of food. The low cost of lap band in Mexico makes it popular for medical travelers.
• Gastric Plication: This bariatric surgery reduces the size of the stomach by sewing large folds in the stomach. It is a conservative procedure that can be reversed or converted to another bariatric procedure, if needed.
• Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy: This irreversible procedure divides the stomach vertically and removes up to 85% of it. The remaining smaller section restricts food intake, eventually resulting in weight loss.

Your doctor at the hospital for bariatric surgery in Guadalajara will help you decide on the right procedure for your condition based on your medical questionnaire.
