A multidisciplinary team approach is typically followed, involving a bariatric surgeon, dietitian, psychologist, and other specialists as required.
Several bariatric surgery options are available, and the choice of procedure depends on the patient’s BMI, health conditions, lifestyle, and surgical goals. All procedures at Pristyn Care are performed laparoscopically (minimally invasive) by experienced bariatric surgeons.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) is currently the most commonly performed bariatric procedure worldwide due to its effectiveness, safety profile, and relatively shorter operative time compared to other procedures.
When performed by experienced bariatric surgeons in accredited facilities, bariatric surgery is generally considered safe. Laparoscopic techniques have significantly reduced surgical risks, and the long-term health benefits for eligible patients typically outweigh the potential risks when thorough pre-operative evaluation is conducted.
Most patients lose 50-70% of their excess body weight within 12-18 months after surgery. Weight loss outcomes vary depending on the procedure performed, pre-operative BMI, adherence to dietary guidelines, and physical activity levels.
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy typically takes 60-90 minutes, while gastric bypass procedures may take 2-3 hours depending on the complexity. The duration varies based on the type of surgery and individual patient factors.
Most patients are discharged within 2-4 days after surgery. Light activities can usually be resumed within 1-2 weeks, and most patients return to work within 3-4 weeks, depending on the nature of their job and individual recovery progress.

Bariatric surgery, particularly gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, has been shown to result in remission or significant improvement of type 2 diabetes in a large proportion of patients. Metabolic improvements often occur before significant weight loss, making bariatric surgery an effective intervention for obese patients with poorly controlled diabetes.
Post-surgery dietary progression begins with clear liquids for the first few days, advancing to full liquids, pureed foods, soft foods, and eventually solid foods over 4-8 weeks. Long-term dietary guidelines include high-protein, low-sugar, low-fat meals in small portions, avoidance of carbonated beverages, and eating slowly and mindfully.
