Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to your most pressing questions about gastric sleeve, bypass, and balloon procedures to help guide your weight loss journey.
How much weight can I lose with each procedure?
• Gastric Sleeve: Patients typically lose 50% to 70% of excess weight in 12-18 months.
• Gastric Bypass: 60% to 80% of excess weight is lost in 12-18 months.
• Balloon: Typically 20-30% of excess weight is lost within 6 months, depending on lifestyle changes.
Is the weight loss permanent?
Weight loss is long-term, but success depends on commitment to lifestyle changes. The intragastric balloon is temporary, so sustained weight loss relies on diet and exercise post-removal.
What is the recovery time for each procedure?
- Gastric Sleeve: 2-4 weeks for a full recovery, with a return to normal activities.
- Gastric Bypass: 4-6 weeks, as the surgery is more complex.
- Balloon: Minimal downtime since it’s non-surgical; most patients resume daily activities within a few days.
Will I need to follow a special diet after surgery?
How soon after surgery will I see results?
• Gastric Sleeve & Bypass: Weight loss starts almost immediately, with significant losses in the first 6-12 months.
• Balloon: Weight loss occurs during the 6 months that the balloon is in place, with gradual results.
Are there alternatives to surgery for weight loss?
Yes: Alternatives include lifestyle changes (diet, exercise), prescription medications, or non-surgical procedures like the intragastric balloon. It’s important to consult a healthcare provider to find the best option based on your health needs.
