Bariatric Surgery Treatment Cost in Turkey

Weight Loss Surgery, also known as Bariatric Surgery, is the procedure to lose weight by making possible changes to the digestive system which in return, restricts the amount of food you consume and lessens your nutrient absorption. The weight loss surgeries take place only after the diet and exercise practices shows no kind of improvement in your weight loss procedure. Also, the decision of undergoing weight loss surgery occurs when you are suffering from serious health-related issues due to your weight.

Mainly, there are five types of weight loss surgeries such as –

  • Laparoscopic Gastric Banding (Lap-Band)

  • Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RGB)

  • Biliopancreatic Diversion (BPD)

  • Vertical Banded Gastroplasty (VBG)

  • Sleeve Gastrectomy

Having so many various types of Weight Loss Surgeries, people of the United States of America mostly opt for the Gastric Bypass as it contains fewer complexities than the rest of the bariatric surgeries. Yet, each kind of weight loss surgery is major treatments which have the ability to pose several risks and side effects as well. However, if you want to see long-term results of your bariatric surgery, it is best to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly on a permanent basis.
