Weight Loss Surgery, also known as Bariatric Surgery, is a medical procedure designed to help people lose excess weight when diet and exercise alone are not enough. It is a proven and long-term solution for obesity and obesity-related health problems.
What Is Weight Loss Surgery?
Weight loss surgery works by:
- Reducing the size of the stomach: Smaller stomach capacity.
- Limiting food intake: Restricting how much you can eat in one sitting.
- Changing absorption: Altering how the body absorbs calories and nutrients.
This helps patients feel full faster and eat less, leading to healthy and sustained weight loss.

- Have severe obesity
- Have a BMI above 35 with obesity-linked health issues
