What Is Bariatric Surgery?

Bariatric surgery includes a range of procedures that help individuals lose weight by changing how the digestive system processes food. These procedures typically work by:

  • Reducing stomach capacity
  • Altering nutrient absorption
  • Modifying hunger-regulating hormones, like ghrelin and GLP-1

At Slim Surgical, we specialize in minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques, which provide:

  • Smaller incisions
  • Lower complication rates
  • Reduced postoperative pain
  • Faster recovery

Conditions Bariatric Surgery Can Improve or Resolve:

  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
  • Sleep Apnea
  • Cardiovascular Risks
  • Joint Pain & Limited Mobility
  • GERD (Acid Reflux)
  • PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)
  • Fatty Liver Disease

  • Bariatric surgery is a clinically proven tool to:
  • Improve life expectancy by up to 10 years
