Types of Bariatric Surgeries

Gastric Banding

Gastric banding surgery is a popular restrictive bariatric surgery and is one of the least invasive surgery for weight loss. The procedure involves placing a specially designed band/implant, around the upper portion of the stomach. It effectively creates a stomach with two connected compartments, with a smaller upper portion and larger bottom portion. A person eats enough food only to fill the top part of the stomach. After the surgery, the food passes slowly through the smaller upper portion into the remainder of the stomach during digestion.

The remaining part of the stomach is completely removed leaving 15% of the stomach to process food. Removed part of the stomach is responsible for generating the hormone “Ghrelin” which makes you feel hungry. With it gone your appetite will decrease significantly helping your weight loss process.
