Nigerian woman undergoes weight loss surgery in India


What is bariatric surgery?


Bariatric surgery is a weight loss surgery. Weight loss is achieved by reducing the size of the stomach with a gastric band or through removal of a portion of the stomach or by gastric bypass surgery. This process will have the effect of long term loss of weight.
Bariatric surgery is for those who have honestly tried all the work outs in the gyms and diets to loss the weight but didn’t get any results.
Bariatric surgery could not be compared with liposuction and tummy sucks as they are different cosmetic procedures. Liposuction removes the excess fat from thighs, back etc...while tummy tuck is performed in the lower part of abdomen.

The Common weight loss surgeries include
This is the favored weight-loss surgery in the United States because it has shown relatively good long-term results. In gastric bypass (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass), the surgeon creates a small pouch at the top of your stomach. The small intestine is then cut a short distance below the main stomach and connected to the new pouch. 
  • Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding
In this procedure, your stomach is separated into two pouches with an inflatable band. Pulling the band tight, like a belt, the surgeon creates a tiny channel between the two pouches.
