Bariatric surgery, also referred to as weight loss surgery, is a medical procedure designed to help individuals who are struggling with obesity and have not achieved long-term results through conventional weight loss methods. It is an effective weight loss operation that alters parts of the digestive system to limit food intake, reduce nutrient absorption, or both.

Bariatric surgery is more than just a weight loss operation. It plays a key role in managing and improving various health conditions that are linked to obesity. Here are the conditions that bariatric surgery can help treat or improve:
Before undergoing a bariatric surgery or weight loss operation, a detailed evaluation is essential to ensure you are medically and mentally prepared for the procedure.
You will meet the following healthcare professionals:
Several diagnostic tests are carried out to ensure your safety and to plan the most appropriate weight loss surgery, such as a gastric sleeve surgery or other common procedures. These include:
To check for anaemia, infection, blood sugar levels, and nutritional deficiencies.
To examine the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and kidneys, and detect any potential issues like gallstones or fatty liver.
This test helps evaluate your heart’s condition, especially if you have a history of high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, or impaired lung function.
To assess your lungs and overall respiratory health before anaesthesia.
For individuals suspected of sleep apnoea, this test helps evaluate breathing patterns during sleep.
These help in identifying any abnormalities in the stomach or oesophagus that may affect the surgery plan.

Bariatric surgery, also called weight loss surgery, includes a variety of procedures designed to help individuals with obesity lose weight and reduce their risk of serious health conditions. Here are the most common bariatric surgery types available:
One of the most common bariatric surgeries performed today, this procedure involves removing nearly 80% of the stomach. The remaining portion is shaped like a tube or “sleeve”, limiting how much food you can eat and reducing hunger by lowering the production of the hunger hormone ghrelin.
Benefits of this weight loss operation:
This advanced weight loss procedure combines stomach reduction with an intestinal bypass. Surgeons create a small stomach pouch and reroute part of the small intestine to it. As a result, both food intake and calorie absorption are reduced.
Key benefits of this bariatric surgery:
A simpler version of the traditional gastric bypass, this procedure reduces both the size of the stomach and the length of the digestive tract involved in nutrient absorption. It’s a less invasive alternative with excellent outcomes for many patients.
Benefits of this procedure:
This complex procedure is generally reserved for patients with a very high BMI or severe metabolic disease. It involves a gastric sleeve followed by a bypass of a large portion of the small intestine.
Benefits of this operation:
Surgery Type | What It Involves | Key Benefits | Who It’s For |
Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy) | Removes about 80% of the stomach, leaving a sleeve-shaped pouch | – Feel full faster- Better blood sugar control- Long-term weight loss with fewer complications | Most common choice worldwide |
Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y) | Small stomach pouch created, intestine rerouted to reduce calorie absorption | – Significant, lasting weight loss- Helps diabetes & blood pressure- Cuts calorie & nutrient absorption | For those needing stronger results |
Mini Gastric Bypass | Smaller stomach and shorter digestive tract than traditional bypass | – Shorter surgery time- Effective weight loss- Lower complication risk | Less invasive option with good results |
Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch (BPD/DS) | Sleeve gastrectomy plus bypass of a large part of small intestine | – Very effective long-term weight loss- Improves diabetes & cholesterol- Strong appetite control | For very high BMI or severe metabolic issues |
Preparing for bariatric surgery is an important step to ensure your weight loss operation is safe and effective. Here’s what to expect before your stomach reduction operation:
After undergoing bariatric surgery, proper postoperative care is key to ensuring long-term success and avoiding complications. Here is what to expect in the months following your surgery to reduce fat:
Like any major weight loss procedure, bariatric surgery carries certain risks. Here are the possible risks and complications you should be aware of:
Bariatric surgery is a clinically proven, long-term solution for people struggling with obesity when diet, exercise, and non-surgical weight loss procedures have not been effective. Key benefits of bariatric surgery:
Bariatric surgery helps individuals lose a large amount of excess weight and maintain it long term, especially in cases of class III obesity.
Procedures like the gastrointestinal sleeve can alter gut hormones, leading to reduced appetite and better metabolic control.
Many patients experience remission of type 2 diabetes and reduced dependence on medication after their weight loss operation.
These surgeries reduce the risk of serious health problems such as heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, sleep apnoea, and joint pain.
Weight loss can lead to improved mobility, better mental health, increased energy levels, and greater self-confidence.
Research shows that people who undergo bariatric surgery may live longer, with up to a 40% reduction in the risk of death from obesity-related causes.
After bariatric surgery, patients follow a structured bariatric diet and receive long-term guidance, helping them adopt and maintain a healthier lifestyle.
At Pristyn Care, we offer laparoscopic and laser-assisted options for surgery loss weight, which reduce hospital stay and speed up healing.
It is recommended when someone has severe obesity and hasn’t been able to lose enough weight through diet or exercise alone.
You may be eligible if your BMI is 35 or higher with related health issues or over 40 without them, and other weight loss methods haven’t worked.
No, that is a myth. Bariatric surgery is a tool, not a shortcut. It still requires major changes to your lifestyle and eating habits after the procedure.
At Pristyn Care, we use minimally invasive methods like gastric sleeve surgery or other stomach reduction operations, which involve making the stomach smaller to reduce food intake.
Most people lose between 50 to 70% of their excess weight within one to two years after the operation.
Recovery generally takes about 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the type of weight loss procedure and how well you follow the post-op guidelines.
When paired with a proper bariatric diet and medical follow-up, the results are long-lasting and highly effective for most patients.
Weight regain can happen if the recommended lifestyle changes are not followed, but support from doctors and dieticians helps keep patients on track.
The cost for a weight loss operation in India usually ranges from ₹2.8 lakh to ₹6 lakh, depending on the type of surgery.
Yes, many insurers do cover bariatric surgery, but it usually depends on your BMI. If your BMI is over 40, you are more likely to be eligible. For those with a BMI between 35 and 40, coverage might still be possible, but there are certain terms and conditions involved. If your BMI is below 35, insurance won’t cover the surgery at all.
