Mini Gastric Bypass

The Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB) is a short, simple, and successful laparoscopic weight loss surgery. It involves the creation of a small, tube-shaped stomach pouch and bypasses a portion of the small intestine, which reduces calorie absorption. This procedure is reversible and can be modified according to the patient's needs.

Success Rate: The success rate of MGB is high, with most patients losing 60-80% of their excess weight within the first year.
Recovery: The hospital stay for MGB is usually 1-2 days. Full recovery, including return to normal activities and work, usually occurs within 1-3 weeks.

AspireAssist

AspireAssist is a non-surgical weight loss procedure that involves the use of a thin tube to drain a portion of food from the stomach after eating. This process, known as aspiration, is done about 20 to 30 minutes after the meal and helps to reduce the amount of calories absorbed by the body. The procedure is minimally invasive, reversible, and is performed under light sedation.
