Bariatric Surgery Procedures
Our verified specialists in Bangalore offer the full range of surgical and non-surgical options for bariatric surgery.
Sleeve Gastrectomy
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy removes approximately 75-80 percent of the stomach, creating a narrow tube-shaped stomach that restricts food intake and reduces hunger hormones. Patients typically lose 60-70 percent of their excess weight within 12-18 months. Dr. Adarsh, a leading surgeon in Bangalore, performs this as the most common bariatric procedure.
Gastric Bypass
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the small intestine to bypass a portion of the digestive tract. This dual mechanism of restriction and malabsorption produces the most significant and sustained weight loss, and is particularly effective for patients with type 2 diabetes. This procedure is available at Dr. Adarsh's clinic in Indiranagar, Bangalore.
Mini Gastric Bypass
Mini gastric bypass (one-anastomosis gastric bypass) is a simplified version of the traditional gastric bypass with a single intestinal connection. It offers comparable weight loss results with a shorter operative time and lower complication rate, making it an excellent option for select patients. Patients across Bangalore can access this treatment at Dr. Adarsh's practice.
Intragastric Balloon
The intragastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss option where a silicone balloon is placed endoscopically in the stomach and filled with saline to create a feeling of fullness. It is suitable for patients with BMI 27-35 who are not candidates for or prefer to avoid bariatric surgery. Dr. Adarsh provides this care at Apollo Clinic, Indiranagar, Bengaluru.
