Bariatric surgery / weight loss surgery in punjab is the only scientifically proven method for long term and effective weight loss. Although, diet and exercise are effective but not for all obese patients. Bariatric Surgery means modification or alteration of the gastrointestinal tract to induce weight loss. It’s considered the most powerful tool to induce weight loss surgery when diet and exercise have failed.

It includes a range of procedures from simple restrictive to combined restrictive and malabsorptive. Majority of the obese individuals fail to reduce weight by diet restriction and regular exercise. Even if they lose initially, weight is regained due to the effect of fat set point. Bariatric surgery helps in calorie restriction, enhanced metabolism and resets the set point of food storage

Depending upon the age, BMI, food habits, social habits, dietary pattern, co-morbidity status and patient compliance, an appropriate weight loss procedure is chosen by the bariatric surgeon after thorough psychological evaluation of the patient. All bariatric and metabolic procedures are done laparoscopically. It is a painless, minimally invasive, stitch less procedure with the patient being in the hospital for 3-4 days.
