Single Incision Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery in Pune
Weight Loss / by Laparo Obeso / 21 views
Laparo Obeso Centre, under the leadership of Dr. Shashank Shah, offers Single Incision Sleeve Gastrectomy (SILS) as an advanced, minimally invasive weight loss surgery. This innovative technique involves performing the procedure through a single small incision, typically made in the navel, which reduces visible scarring and promotes faster recovery. During the surgery, approximately 75% of the stomach is removed, creating a tube-like “sleeve” that limits food intake and decreases hunger hormone production.
The procedure generally takes 1-2 hours, with patients usually staying in the hospital for 1-2 days. Most patients can return to normal activities within 2-4 weeks, experiencing less postoperative discomfort compared to traditional multi-incision techniques. Patients typically achieve 60-70% excess weight loss within the first year and see improvements in obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea.
Comprehensive postoperative care at Laparo Obeso Centre includes nutritional counseling, exercise guidance, and regular follow-up appointments. A multidisciplinary team of dietitians, psychologists, and physical therapists ensures long-term success and sustained weight loss. Dr. Shashank Shah and his experienced team provide personalized care and continuous support, making single incision sleeve gastrectomy a safe and effective option for significant weight loss.
