Our Gastric bypass Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Gastric bypass, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Gastric Balloon

A gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss option involving inserting a balloon into the stomach to reduce food intake.

Pros: Minimally invasive with no incisions. It offers a temporary solution, allowing removal if needed. 30% weight loss within 6 months is common.

Cons: Potential for nausea and vomiting in 30% of patients. Limited to 6-month duration, requiring further intervention for long-term results.

Effectiveness: Achieves up to 15%-30% total body weight loss.

Duration: 20-30 minutes

Recovery: 1-2 days

Best for: Individuals with a BMI of 30-40. Ideal for those seeking non-surgical weight loss.

Prices: Cost of Gastric balloon in Spain from $14,677

Metabolic Surgery

A surgical intervention aimed at improving metabolic conditions by altering the digestive system.

Pros: Significant weight loss, up to 60% of excess weight. Can improve or resolve type 2 diabetes in 77% of patients. Often results in long-term weight maintenance without needing constant diet adjustments.

Cons: Possible nutrient deficiencies due to altered digestion. Requires lifelong dietary supplements and regular medical follow-ups.

Effectiveness: 60% excess weight loss.

Duration: 2-4 hours

Recovery: 2-4 weeks

Best for: Patients with BMI over 40, or over 35 with obesity-related health issues.

Prices: Cost of Metabolic surgery in Spain from $26,209

Da Vinci Gastric Bypass Surgery

A minimally invasive robotic-assisted bariatric procedure designed to reduce stomach size and reroute the small intestine.

Pros: Precision of robotic assistance minimizes surgical trauma and enhances recovery. 60% of patients maintain significant weight loss long-term. Reduced risk of complications compared to traditional methods.

Cons: Requires specialized equipment and training, which may limit availability. Longer operation time than standard laparoscopic procedures.

Effectiveness: Achieves 60-70% excess weight loss within 1 year.

Duration: 3-4 hours

Recovery: 2-3 weeks

Best for: Individuals with BMI over 40 or those with obesity-related health issues.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

A surgical procedure that creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the small intestine to promote weight loss and improve metabolic health.

Pros: Significant weight loss, with patients losing up to 70% of excess weight. It improves comorbidities like diabetes and hypertension more effectively than gastric balloon or ESG.

Cons: Requires lifelong vitamin and mineral supplementation. Higher surgical risks compared to non-surgical options like gastric balloon or ESG.

Effectiveness: 60-80% excess weight loss within 1-2 years.

Duration: 2-4 hours

Recovery: 2-4 weeks

Best for: Individuals with BMI over 40, or over 35 with obesity-related health conditions.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)

A minimally invasive weight loss procedure that reduces the stomach size using an endoscopic suturing device.

Pros: Less invasive than Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass. Quicker recovery compared to metabolic surgery. No external incisions. 15-20% total body weight loss in a year.

Cons: Less effective long-term weight loss compared to Da Vinci Gastric Bypass. Possible stomach stretching over time.

Effectiveness: Achieves 15-20% total body weight loss within one year.

Duration: 1-2 hours

Recovery: 1-3 days
