Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as stomach reduction surgery, is one of the most commonly performed surgical interventions today. In gastric sleeve surgery, the stomach is transformed into a banana-shaped longitudinal tube. With the laparoscopic method, that is, the closed surgery technique, approximately 80 percent of the stomach is cut and removed. In this way, stomach food intake is restricted. In addition, sleeve gastrectomy surgery has the effect of reducing food absorption, although at a low level. People who have undergone gastric sleeve surgery have a reduced appetite and insulin resistance decreases, even if weight loss has not yet occurred.

Gastric sleeve surgery is one of the most preferred surgical treatment methods for obesity. This method reduces the stomach volume and limits the amount of food and calorie intake that a person can consume at a time. In this procedure, also known as Sleeve Gastrectomy, approximately 85% of the stomach is cut and removed along the stapler line, starting from the lower part called the antrum and ending in the proximal sensation area, and the stomach capacity is reduced to a maximum of 100 ml. When the new shape of the stomach resembles a tube, this method is called gastric sleeve surgery.
Gastric sleeve surgery is performed laparoscopically, that is, by entering through a small incision in the abdominal wall. Since it does not require open surgery, it shortens the patient’s recovery time and reduces the risk of infection, which is a great advantage for patients.
Gastric bypass surgery, also known as gastric sleeve surgery, is a surgical procedure used in the treatment of obesity. This surgery aims to promote weight loss by reducing the volume of the stomach and disabling part of the intestines.
Gastric sleeve surgery is usually performed in an operation that takes approximately 1.5 hours. In this method, the stomach exit and entrance area is preserved and continuity in the digestive system is maintained. Therefore, the risks after sleeve gastrectomy surgery are low and unwanted side effects are reported quite rarely.
Procedures for sleeve gastrectomy surgery generally include the procedures required for bariatric surgery practices. To be a candidate for bariatric surgery, certain criteria must be met:
Although gastric sleeve surgery is generally a mild-to-moderate risky operation, the majority of patients do not experience additional problems. The complication rate is around 2%. Since closed surgery technique is used, patients can stand up on the same day. Generally, 3-4 days of hospitalization is sufficient and normal daily life can be returned within a few weeks.
Follow-up results after sleeve gastrectomy surgery are quite successful. Patients begin to lose weight after the surgery and experience significant weight loss within a few months. Data obtained as a result of long-term medical follow-up shows that patients who have sleeve gastrectomy surgery lose 70-80% of their excess weight.
I got a wonderful experience with this clinic. I have got my hair transplant 4 months ago and I'm starting getting satisfying results. My hair starts growing and I'm noticing the difference. Since my first day in Turkey with Sona health clinic I was very well received from the airport.
A highly competent team and great service! They made me feel really comfortable during the procedure. I was hesitant to go to Turkey from Finland but in the end, my dental prosthetics turned out great. Thank you!
I highly recommend Sona Health! A warm environment and great service.. I live in Denmark and I was thinking about having a rhinoplasty for a few years and I finally decided to come to Turkey for the operation.

I live in Lyon, France. I came to Istanbul for Rhinoplasty Operation. Sona Health picked me up from the airport with a VIP vehicle. I stayed in a 5-star hotel in Nişantaşı. My mother also stayed with me. At Sona Clinic, Dr. Esma took very good care of me. Frankly, I was very scared at first, but the professionalism, friendly face, interest and concern of this team took away all my stress. The result was perfect and I loved it. I would like to thank Sona Health team for everything.
I was very pleased with the implant treatment I had at Sona Health.

The treatment is progressing successfully. I would like to thank both the doctors and Sona Health staff. I recommend it to friends who are considering it.
Sona health is the clinic where I started transparent plaque treatment 4 months ago. I was extremely satisfied with the improvement of my teeth. It is more useful when I compare it to braces. As much as all these treatments I received, the team was warm and understanding. Thank you all. I will recommend it to all my friends.
