Gastric bypass Turkey: price gastroplasty Istanbul
Gastric band placement in Istanbul, Turkey is a bariatric surgery procedure in which a band is placed around the stomach. During this restrictive technique, a small portion of the stomach is placed at the top and the rest of the stomach is placed at the bottom of this band. This tightens the pylorus so that food enters the stomach slowly and the patient feels full more quickly than before. Ultimately, the eating less leads to weight loss in the patient.

What is the weight for gastric banding?
Gastric banding is used to treat severe or morbid obesity. It is recommended for men and women in whom other obesity treatment techniques have not been successful. You may benefit from gastric banding if you are severely obese with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 40. Your doctor may also advise it if your BMI is between 35 and 40 and you have a medical condition such as sleep apnea, high blood pressure, heart disease or type 2 diabetes.
What types of gastric bands are used?
Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band
This type of band is the most commonly used. The procedure is performed laparoscopically, with small incisions in the upper abdomen. The surgeon places an adjustable band around the upper part of the stomach. This creates a very small stomach pouch. Because of this small pouch, you will feel full after eating less. This will help you lose weight. The gastric band can be adjusted. This is done by adding or removing fluid in a balloon around the band. This is done through a port placed under the skin of your abdomen.
The non-adjustable gastric band
This type of gastric band is adjusted only once when placed around the stomach. It has the same function as the laparoscopic adjustable gastric band, creating a small pouch that will serve as the stomach and limit the amount of food swallowed.
As a result of the significant reduction in stomach capacity, the amount of food consumed is limited, resulting in weight loss. Usually, patients after gastroplasty in Turkey can only consume about 200 ml of food at a time. Already after a small meal, a full stomach sends a satiety signal.

Aesthetic GuideProcedure for Gastric Banding in Turkey
Gastric band surgery is less invasive and typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. You will be under general anesthesia for your surgery. This will allow you to sleep through the surgery and not feel any pain.
The surgeon will insert the laparoscope through incisions in the abdomen to manipulate medical instruments and monitor the operation via a camera. With an adjustable gastric band, the surgeon will place it around your upper stomach, then tighten it to create a small stomach pouch.
The surgeon will then place a subcutaneous box connected via a tube to the band that will be used to inject or remove saline that will be used to adjust the gastric band.
What are the benefits of gastric banding?
With gastric banding, patients who are moderately or morbidly obese can lose significant weight, which has other benefits for the patient's overall health.
Some obesity-related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, and hypertension, are cured by weight loss through gastric banding; so much so that the use of medications is no longer necessary to control certain diseases.
One of the main advantages of gastric banding is that its placement in the abdomen is not permanent and the patient can remove it at any time through a relatively simple operation. In addition, gastric banding is safer than other weight loss procedures, and the patient recovers more quickly. Another advantage of gastric banding is that the gastric band can be loosened or tightened by injecting or removing a small amount of saline.
Other benefits of gastric banding include:
- After gastric banding, the stomach can hold less food.
- More than 40-50% of weight is lost.
- Stomach incision or bowel detour is not performed in this surgery.
- Among other weight loss methods, the rate of complications is lower.
- The risk of vitamin and mineral deficiency is lower with gastric banding than with other weight loss methods.

Patient guideWhat are the operative consequences of gastric banding in Turkey?
With the care and monitoring of the Medespoir Turkey team, you will likely go home the day after surgery. A liquid diet is recommended for one to two weeks.
The surgical team will give you a schedule of meal types for the next few weeks. You will move from liquids to pureed foods, then to soft foods, and finally to regular foods. Each meal should be very small.
You need to make sure you eat slowly and chew each bite well. Do not switch to regular food too quickly. This can cause pain and vomiting. After your stomach heals, you will need to change your eating habits. You will need to eat small meals for your small stomach.
.People who have undergone weight loss surgery may have difficulty getting enough vitamins and minerals. This is because they take in less food, and therefore fewer nutrients. You may need to take a daily multivitamin, as well as a calcium-vitamin D supplement. You may need additional nutrients, such as vitamin B12 or iron. Your medical team will give you instructions.
After losing weight, it is possible to regain some of the lost weight. To avoid this, be sure to eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly. The stomach pouch may enlarge and expand over time. This will allow you to eat more. But remember, if you eat all you can, you may gain weight back.
