Gastric Bypass Dubai & Al Ain – Weight Loss
Gastric Bypass offers a path to effective weight loss and renewed confidence. Discover top bariatric surgeons in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Al Ain to reshape your body and health.
Gastric bypass surgery is a type of bariatric surgery aimed at weight loss. Also called VSG gastric sleeve or sleeve gastrectomy, this procedure works by making the stomach smaller, which helps control how much food you can eat.
By reducing food intake, it assists in losing extra weight and managing healthier eating habits. During this surgery, the surgeon permanently removes a significant portion of the stomach, reducing its ability to hold food.
By eliminating the section responsible for producing the hunger-inducing hormone ghrelin, this process also lessens your appetite. After the surgery, you’ll notice feeling full sooner after eating less and having reduced hunger between meals.
Gastric Bypass Benefits:
This procedure offers benefits such as a shorter hospital stay, no redirection of the food stream, and positive changes in gut hormones that curb hunger, decrease appetite, and enhance satisfaction. Our surgeons in Dubai provide gastric sleeve surgery and can guide you on its suitability for your needs.
