What is a Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy)?
Gastric sleeve surgery is a minimally invasive bariatric procedure designed to help you lose a significant amount of weight.
During the surgery, approximately 75% to 80% of your stomach is carefully removed, leaving a narrow, banana-sized “sleeve.”
This physical reduction strictly limits the amount of food you can eat. More importantly, it removes the portion of the stomach
that produces ghrelin (the hunger hormone). According to th American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS),
this hormonal change is what makes the sleeve gastrectomy incredibly effective for long-term weight loss and metabolic health.

The Procedure: What to Expect in Turkey
Your safety and comfort are our absolute priorities. From the moment you land, our VIP team takes over. Here is the step-by-step medical process:
Pre-Op Tests & Consultation
Before any surgery, you will undergo a comprehensive health screening in our high-tech hospital. This includes blood tests, an EKG, and a consultation with your bariatric surgeon and anesthesiologist.
Laparoscopic Surgery
Under general anesthesia, the surgeon makes 4 to 5 tiny incisions in your abdomen. Using a laparoscope (a small camera), they carefully staple and divide the stomach.
Reshaping the Stomach
The larger portion of the stomach is permanently removed, leaving the new, smaller sleeve. The entire surgery usually takes just 1 to 2 hours.
Recovery & VIP Aftercare
You will stay in our luxury hospital for 3 to 4 nights under 24/7 medical supervision. Our dedicated dietitians will guide you through your new liquid diet phase before you fly back home safely.
