In the midst of a fast paced life where stress and responsibilities accumulate, and priorities become blurred our bodies often bear the brunt of unhealthy habits. One of the first signs of imbalance may be a slight weight gain, which can gradually turn into a heavy burden impacting both physical and mental health. Obesity is not just an increase in size; it is a reflection of underlying conditions that drain the body of its energy, vitality, and even hope for a healthier and happier life.

However, every challenge carries within it the seed of change. In today’s world of advanced medical technology, we are more empowered than ever to reshape our lives and bodies. Bariatric surgery especially the gastric sleeve procedure is one of the most effective and transformative solutions for individuals struggling with severe obesity.

At TMC for Medical Tourism, we believe that every treatment journey deserves exceptional care and attention. That’s why we go beyond providing advanced medical procedures; we offer an all encompassing experience that supports patients physically, mentally, and logistically. With TMC, you receive more than just treatment you gain a comprehensive, personalized experience that guides you toward a healthier, renewed life.

What Is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as Sleeve Gastrectomy, is a permanent weight loss procedure that involves the surgical removal of approximately 75:80% of the stomach. The remaining portion is reshaped into a narrow, sleeve like tube, which significantly reduces the stomach’s capacity to hold food.

This operation not only limits the amount of food consumed during meals but also impacts hunger related hormones. By reducing the production of ghrelin commonly known as the “hunger hormone” the surgery helps curb appetite and supports sustainable weight loss.

This profound transformation of the digestive system enables patients to feel full with smaller portions, thus contributing to long term weight management and improved overall health.
