Bariatric Surgery
The best way to lead the most healthiest lifestyle
Bariatric surgery (best weight loss surgery) is the only scientifically proven method for long term and effective weight loss. Bariatric Surgery means modification or alteration of the gastrointestinal tract to induce weight loss. 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.
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 days.
When it comes to a complex healthcare process like surgery, it is important to choose the right place. Codsils is a leading weight loss clinic in Chandigarh founded by distinguished super-specialist and surgeon Dr. Amit Garg. Codsils today is one of the most reliable places for reasonable bariatric surgery. The clinic proudly holds credit for treating hundreds of patients suffering from severe diabetes and obesity.
How it Works
Bariatric surgeries are effective in weight loss as well as diabetes. Various types of metabolic surgeries like gastric bypass help in losing weight by reducing stomach size. The surgery reduces your food intake capacity and hence, you will shed off extra fat after surgery. Bariatric surgery is suggested when a person is not able to lose weight with physical exercises and dieting. Through these weight loss surgeries, one can bring positive changes to their health.

Why Bariatric Surgery
When obesity reaches an abnormal level, natural ways of losing weight do not work. Adults with morbid obesity fail to achieve significant weight loss. If not controlled, obesity can raise serious health issues like diabetes and heart diseases.
Bariatric is a proven and safe surgical process to achieve a significant level of weight loss. Bariatric surgeries are also a permanent solution to the problem of obesity. Visit Codsils for more information on specific surgery.
In addition to weight loss, bariatric surgery results in resolution of medical problems like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, hyperlipidemias in significant number of patients.
This resolution is more after sleeve gastrectomy and diversion procedures compared to purely restrictive operations. Reason behind this resolution is due to the alteration of gut hormones like GLP 1, that control insulin production and action, ghrelin, anti incretins in addition to weight loss and calorie restriction. Due to these positive effects laparoscopic metabolic surgery is developed to cure type 2 diabetes. Loop duodenojejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (LDJB-SG) and Sleeve gastrectomy with jejuno-ileal interposition (SG-JII) are the most effective surgeries to cure Type 2 diabetes. These operations result in resolution of type 2 diabetes in majority of the patients regardless of their weight.
