Gastric Sleeve Surgery
The gastric sleeve procedure is a popular and effective surgery for obesity and associated health conditions. It involves removing a significant portion of the stomach, resulting in sustainable weight loss by limiting food intake. This surgery also helps manage diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea. By reducing Ghrelin levels, known as the hunger hormone, the gastric sleeve controls appetite and improves portion control.
