Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Tijuana, Mexico

What Is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

Gastric Sleeve surgery is among the several types of weight-loss surgery that promises long-term results. As the name suggests, the stomach’s size will be reduced to a tube-like form. This is done by taking 70-80% of the stomach, allowing for a lesser appetite. Patients who have gone through this surgery reported to have shown results in just a few weeks.

Who Needs Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

The people who are recommended to have this operation are those with health conditions that were aggravated due to their weight such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. And after trying out other options like exercise and a strict diet to no avail, then gastric sleeve surgery is suggested.
