Bariatric Surgery in Turkey
Your Journey to a Healthier Life Starts Here
Struggling with obesity can affect not only your appearance but also your overall health, confidence, and quality of life. Bariatric surgery is a proven and effective solution for individuals who have tried other weight loss methods without long-term success.
At Health in Turkey, we offer life-changing bariatric procedures performed by experienced bariatric surgeons in accredited Turkish hospitals, using the latest techniques to help you lose weight safely and sustainably.
What is Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery refers to various weight-loss procedures that help reduce the size of the stomach or alter digestion to limit calorie intake and absorption. It is typically recommended for individuals with a BMI of 35 or more, especially if they have related health conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea.
Types of Bariatric Surgery We Offer
Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy): Removes about 80% of the stomach, leaving a smaller “sleeve” to restrict food intake.
Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y): Reduces stomach size and reroutes part of the small intestine, reducing calorie absorption.
Gastric Balloon: A temporary, non-surgical option where a balloon is inserted into the stomach to make you feel full sooner.
Mini Gastric Bypass: A simpler, faster alternative to traditional bypass with similar results.
Revisional Bariatric Surgery: For those who need correction or improvement after previous procedures.
