Obesity Surgery

What is Bariatric Surgery?

Bariatric surgery includes surgical treatment methods performed to support permanent weight loss in individuals with severe obesity. These procedures are generally preferred for patients who cannot lose weight despite diet, exercise, and medical treatments.

At Özel Algomed Hospital, bariatric surgery procedures are performed with modern surgical techniques, a multidisciplinary approach, and personalized treatment planning. The main goal is not only weight loss but also improving quality of life and controlling obesity-related health problems.

Who is Suitable for Bariatric Surgery?

Bariatric surgery is a suitable treatment option for individuals who meet certain health criteria. It is especially recommended for patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 40 or higher, or those with a BMI above 35 who also have obesity-related conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea.

Individuals who cannot lose weight despite long-term diet and exercise programs may also be evaluated for bariatric surgery. Before the procedure, the patient’s overall health condition is carefully assessed and a personalized treatment plan is created.
