Benefits of Gastric Sleeve
Significant Weight Loss
The gastric sleeve is a highly effective weight loss procedure, with patients typically losing up to 60-70% of their excess weight within the first year. Patients can lose up to 60% of their excess weight within the first year after surgery.
Improved Quality of Life
Many people who undergo gastric sleeve surgery report an improvement in their overall quality of life. weight loss can lead to increased self-esteem and confidence, which can have a positive impact on mental health.
Long-Term Results
Gastric sleeve surgery can lead to long-term weight loss and weight maintenance, with studies showing that patients can maintain an average of 50% of their excess weight loss for up to five years after the surgery.
Improved Mobility
Obesity can make it difficult for people to perform everyday activities and can even limit their mobility. After gastric sleeve surgery and subsequent weight loss, patients often report improved mobility and the ability to engage in physical activity without pain or discomfort.
About Gastric Sleeve Surgery
There are two types of gastric sleeve surgery: a total gastrectomy, which sees the whole stomach removed leaving behind a ‘sleeve’, and a partial gastrectomy, where just the lower half of the stomach is removed. Sleeve gastrectomy will reduce the stomach to around a tenth of its size. Both methods will remove the area of the stomach that produces an appetite-increasing hormone.
Gastric sleeve surgery will help you to lose weight if other weight-loss methods have failed. It is a highly effective way to lose excess weight. It is popular too, with sleeve gastrectomy being the second most performed weight-loss surgery in the UK.

Case Studies
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the surgery performed?
The surgery is typically performed laparoscopically, using small incisions and a camera to guide the surgeon. During the procedure, the surgeon removes approximately 80% of the stomach, leaving a smaller, banana-shaped "sleeve."
How much weight can I expect to lose?
Patients can typically expect to lose 50-70% of their excess body weight in the first two years after surgery. The amount of weight loss varies depending on factors such as starting weight, diet, exercise, and adherence to post-surgery guidelines.
What are the potential risks and complications?
Risks and complications can include bleeding, infection, blood clots, leaks, strictures, and nutrient deficiencies. However, serious complications are rare and occur in less than 1% of cases.
How long does it take to recover from the surgery?
Most patients are able to return to normal activities within 2-4 weeks, although recovery time varies depending on the individual and the extent of the surgery.
Will I need to follow a special diet after the surgery?
Yes, following a strict post-surgery diet plan is crucial for successful weight loss and long-term health. The diet typically consists of clear liquids, pureed foods, and gradually introducing solid foods over several weeks. Patients will also need to take vitamin and mineral supplements to ensure proper nutrition.
