Lose up to 80% of your excess body weight with the Gastric Sleeve surgery.
Keyhole surgery in Puerto Vallarta using either 4 or 5 very tiny incisions.
Typically, patients lose about half of their weight within six months of treatment. In about one year, you can expect to achieve approximately 80 percent weight loss*
The size of your stomach will be significantly reduced during the procedure, including the portion that creates the hunger hormone. As a result, you will feel fuller quicker and for longer.*
The less invasive nature of the procedure reduces your risk of infection, malnutrition, and other serious complications compared to other weight loss surgeries.
The Gastric Sleeve is a wonderful tool to help you lose your excess weight through diet and exercise.
*Notice the results may vary for each patient depending on many factors related to race, age, health, gender and whether or not the patient follows the doctor’s post-operative instructions.
The Gastric Sleeve surgery in Mexico takes about one hour to perform. VSG, Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy, or most commonly referred to as the Gastric Sleeve in Mexico is one of the leading bariatric surgery options available for weight loss, that involves the removal of a portion of the stomach allowing for the management of morbid obesity. Normally during the Gastric sleeve surgery, between 70 and 80 percent of the stomach is removed including the area where the ghrelin or hunger hormone is produced.*
The portion of the stomach that remains will take the shape of a sleeve, reducing the amount of food the patient is able to consume. The patients who undergo this form of weight loss surgery may feel full faster, as well as possibly feel fuller longer, which thus can help the patient potentially lose weight. Of course, this all depends on if the patient follows the doctor’s post-operative advice, as well as each patient will have different results depending on many factors related to race, age, health and gender. The certified bariatric surgeons at Weight Loss Team use a special inverted sleeve technique that helps protect the patient from leaks and long term weight regain by hand stitching over the surgical staples at the end of the sleeve surgery. With this surgery the patient may experience a significant amount of weight loss while having a surgery that is considered to be one which is low risk for infection or other serious complication.*
