Bariatrics
Bariatric surgeries are designed to help patients with obesity and metabolic disorders (for example, type 2 diabetes mellitus). The standard of living of such patients is greatly reduced, and conservative methods of treatment (diet, drugs that affect metabolism, hormone therapy) are not effective.
The main directions of bariatric operations are to reduce the size of the stomach and reduce the absorption of nutrients in the gastrointestinal tract. This affects not only digestion, but also the endocrine system and metabolic processes throughout the body.
The best clinics in Turkey (Medical Park Hospital, Liv Hospital), with which our company cooperates, use only modern techniques that affect both mechanisms of weight loss. This allows you to get excellent results. You can read more about the types of operations below.
After surgical treatment, patients lose weight by 70-90%, and metabolism is normalized. And thanks to a comprehensive approach to treatment, the risk of gaining weight again is reduced many times in comparison with operations that only mechanically reduce the volume of the stomach.
Go Plastic Istanbul will be with you at every stage: from choosing a clinic and a doctor, to helping 24/7 during treatment. We will solve all organizational issues for you.
Resection of the stomach (Sleeve)
Resection of the stomach is an effective method of surgical weight loss, in which a large part of the organ is removed, i.e. the volume of food is reduced to 100 ml per dose. The partner clinics of «Go Plastic Istanbul» have developed a competent preoperative preparation system that reduces the risk of complications. The operation lasts no more than 1 hour. Resection is performed laparoscopically using robotic surgery. Due to this, the risks of infection and large blood loss are minimized. The incisions heal quickly without leaving obvious defects. After the operation, there is a rehabilitation program for patients.
Gastric bypass
Gastric bypass surgery is a highly effective and safe method of weight loss. During the operation, the volume of the stomach is reduced and the small intestine is reconstructed. Food from the esophagus, bypassing the duodenum, immediately enters the small ventricle. The amount of food consumed is reduced several times. The surgeons of Turkish clinics have extensive experience in performing gastric bypass surgery, which guarantees a minimal risk of complications. The operation is performed laparoscopically. The use of robotic surgery reduces postoperative blood loss and shortens the recovery period.
Transit separation
Transition separation is an operation during which part of the stomach is removed and a new connection is created. One third of the food passes through the duodenum, the other third through the new junction of the small intestine and stomach. This stimulates small intestine hormones and provides control of diabetes. Due to the cessation of ghrelin secretion, patients do not feel hungry, and the amount eaten is significantly reduced. Patients who have undergone a transit separation in our clinics have permanently eliminated hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, sleep apnea and other metabolic problems.
Intragastric balloon
Placement of the intragastric balloon is a simple and quick procedure without pain. A soft silicone ball is inserted endoscopically (not surgically) into the stomach, partially filling it and creating a feeling of satiety. It helps patients to follow a diet and lose weight effectively. The procedure is performed under deep sedation. After placing the ball, the patient can immediately proceed to the usual household chores. After a certain time, the balloon is removed back. Complications after the procedure are extremely rare. Experienced doctors of our clinics will assess your health status to identify personal risks and talk about them in detail.
