The duration of the surgical process depends on the type of bariatric surgery you are going through. Typically, it takes somewhere between 1 to 1.5 hours.

After undergoing bariatric surgery, you are expected to stay in the hospital for 1 to 3 days. However, it can vary from case to case based on the individual circumstances and type of surgery.

You will be walking right from the third hour after surgery. You can perform all mild to moderate activities like walking, climbing stairs, cooking etc. immediately after discharge.

Many different factors decide weight loss. It includes your overall health, age, and initial weight. You can expect to lose 50 to 100% of your excess weight within the first year.

Every surgery has risks and complications. A few of these are blood clots, infection, bleeding, etc. The same applies to bariatric surgery as well.

We suggest you follow all pre-operative instructions provided by our surgeon, like stopping certain medications and supplements as directed to manage potential risks.

Also, meticulously follow all post-operative instructions, like taking any prescribed medications on time and attending follow-up appointments with your surgeon.

Contact our bariatric surgeon immediately if you experience unusual symptoms such as severe pain, fever, or swelling.
