About this treatment

Surgery is just the start. The real work happens over 12 months.

Bariatric surgery has been proven as one of the most successful medical interventions of the past 30 years. Sleeve patients show 60–70% Type 2 diabetes remission; 85% of sleep apnea cases resolve. This is not a cosmetic procedure but a serious health intervention.

Our programme is not just surgery. Pre-op, you work with a dietitian and psychologist. On surgery day, bariatric anaesthesia protocols and ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) are used. Post-op includes 12 months of monthly check-ins and lifetime community support.

The choice between sleeve, bypass and balloon depends on your BMI, comorbidities and lifestyle. We start by recommending the most appropriate option in your online consultation — we don't upsell.

Frequently asked questions

Most asked questions about bariatric surgery

Am I a candidate for bariatric surgery?
Generally, candidates have BMI ≥ 35 with comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea) or BMI ≥ 40. We assess each case individually during a free online consultation.
How much weight will I lose?
Gastric sleeve patients typically lose 60–70% of excess weight in 12–18 months. Bypass patients lose 70–80%. Long-term success depends on diet and lifestyle.
How long is the hospital stay?
3–4 nights in hospital, plus 4–5 days in a recovery hotel. Total in Türkiye: 8–10 days.
Will I need to take vitamins forever?
Yes — daily multivitamins, vitamin B12 and iron supplementation are required after sleeve and bypass surgeries. Our team provides a clear protocol and monitors your levels for 12 months.
Can the surgery be reversed?
Sleeve gastrectomy removes part of the stomach permanently and cannot be reversed. Gastric bypass is technically reversible but rarely undone. Gastric balloon is fully temporary (6 months).
What if I regain weight years later?
Most patients maintain 50%+ excess weight loss long-term. If significant regain occurs, options include endoscopic revision or conversion to bypass. We support you for 12 months and beyond.
