OBESITY AND TREATMENT

                                             

The first step in treatment of obesity is applying diet and doing sport. In other words, eating habits must be changed and the amount of movement should be increased.

Tüp Mide-Sleeve Gastrektomi

SCARLESS SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY

In this operation method, all procedures are performed with the help of special tools that are entered through an incision made inside the belly button. In fact, it is not a completely scarless method. Since the incision is made through the belly button, there is a scar in the navel, but when the healing period is completed due to the pit structure of the belly button, the surgical scar remains in this pit and there is no visible scar from the outside. For this reason, these operations are called scarless surgeries. With this method, gallbladder surgery, appendicitis surgery, some intestinal surgeries can also be performed.

 

The difference of scarless obesity surgeries from other obesity surgeries is that they give a much better result in terms of aesthetics. The quality of the surgery performed and the postoperative recovery period are similar.

This surgery may not be suitable for patients with a very large belly button, located below the belly button. This can be decided by an examination. Another criterion that determines the feasibility of this surgery is liver size. It may be difficult to perform this surgery if you have a very fatty and very large liver.
