Simply weight loss surgery is known as tummy tuck surgery for any surgical procedure that is carried out to help patients to lose weight. There are several different kinds.
The most popular forms of the surgery are gastric band, gastric sleeves and gastric bypasses. All of which effectively reduce the capacity of your stomach when the surgeon implants a device that restricts part of your stomach or surgically reduces the size of your stomach.
After surgery, patients have less capacity for food, patients report that their appetite is significantly reduced and they stay fuller for longer after eating. This makes it far, far easier for them to eat a healthy diet and eat less food overall. Because of this most patients lose weight extremely quickly and find it relatively easy to keep it off.
Who is Suitable for Weight Loss Surgery?
As with any surgery, weight loss surgery is a major decision and surgeons will not perform these procedures on somebody who is not severely overweight. They will usually not do so unless the person has already tried to lose weight using diet and exercise.
It is not something to be taken lightly; however, it is extremely effective. In most cases, patients reach their target weight and manage to control their weight for the rest of their lives.
