GASTRIC SLEEVE (VSG)

Service Description

Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) Efficient. Effective. Empowering. 🔬 What is it? The Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy is a minimally invasive procedure in which approximately 75–85% of the stomach is removed, leaving behind a slender, banana-shaped sleeve. This significantly reduces hunger by limiting ghrelin production and restricts the volume of food the stomach can hold. Often referred to as the “gastric sleeve,” is one of the most popular bariatric procedures worldwide. In this minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery, about 75–85% of the stomach is removed, transforming it into a slender tube or "sleeve." This reduction limits food intake and dramatically decreases the hunger hormone ghrelin, helping you feel full faster and stay full longer. ✅ Benefits: Restrictive only: No intestinal rerouting. Hormonal regulation: Reduces appetite and cravings. Rapid satiety. Metabolic impact: Improves type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cholesterol. Minimally invasive: Performed via laparoscopy. Short hospital stay and fast recovery. Preserves pyloric valve for normal digestion. Excellent weight loss and metabolic improvements. 💡 Who is it for? Ideal for: Patients seeking a restrictive-only procedure with excellent safety and long-term outcomes. Ideal for patients with a BMI over 35, especially those who want a less complex procedure that still provides excellent weight loss and metabolic improvement.
