Gastric sleeve
The Gastric Sleeve procedure, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, entails the surgical removal of a large portion of the stomach to create a sleeve-shaped pouch.
This pouch restricts the amount of food that can be consumed, significantly reducing the stomach’s capacity.
The primary mechanism of weight loss is through the restriction of food intake, as the smaller stomach size leads to earlier feelings of fullness.

GASTRIC BYPASS
The Gastric Bypass procedure involves the creation of a smaller stomach pouch, typically about 150ml in capacity.
This works by rerouting food away from the usual path of digestive juices, directing it to bypass a portion of the upper small intestine. Alongside this anatomical alteration, significant hormonal changes occur, contributing to the overall effectiveness of the procedure.
