 Bariatric surgery is a type of weight-loss surgery that is performed on people who are obese. The surgery is meant to help people lose weight by making changes to their digestive system.

There are several different types of bariatric surgery, but the most common are gastric bypass and gastric sleeve surgery. Both of these surgeries work by reducing the size of the stomach, which means that people feel fuller and faster and eat less food.

Bariatric surgery is generally safe, but there are some risks involved. The most common complication is called “dumping syndrome,” which happens when food moves too quickly from the stomach to the intestine. This can cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea.

Other complications can include hernias, internal bleeding, and blood clots.

Overall, bariatric surgery is a safe and effective way to lose weight. If you are considering the surgery, be sure to speak with your doctor about the risks and benefits.

Bariatric surgery is a type of surgery that helps people lose weight. The surgery makes changes to your digestive system that make it harder for you to eat and absorb calories. Bariatric surgery also might help change the hormones that control how your body stores fat.

You are committed to making changes to your lifestyle, such as eating a healthier diet and getting more exercise.
