Barranquilla, Colombia
The gastric bypass is considered the "gold standard" of bariatric surgery. It is a procedure that works in two ways: first, a small pouch is created in the stomach to restrict the amount of food you can ingest. Second, the small intestine is reconfigured so that the body absorbs fewer calories. This dual action makes it extremely effective for weight loss and the improvement of metabolic diseases.
This is a complex procedure that must be performed exclusively by a board-certified bariatric surgeon with vast experience in advanced laparoscopic techniques. The success of a gastric bypass depends on a complete multidisciplinary team, which includes specialists in nutrition and mental health to support you in every stage of the process.
- Maximum Metabolic Effectiveness: It is the most effective procedure for the remission of type 2 diabetes and the improvement of other conditions. Patients can expect to lose between 70% and 80% of their excess weight.
- Minimally Invasive Technique: Despite its complexity, it is performed laparoscopically. This means small incisions, less post-operative pain, and a faster recovery.
- Lifelong Nutritional Commitment: Due to the lower absorption of nutrients, a lifelong commitment to a specific diet and taking vitamin supplements is essential to avoid deficiencies.
- A Profound and Lasting Change: It is one of the most powerful tools for a definitive life change, but it requires total commitment from the patient. Our team will give you the necessary support for your long-term success.
