The majority of weight-loss operations are done under general anesthesia using a minimally invasive technique called laparoscopic surgery. Through these incisions, the surgeon can insert minute instruments and a scope with an attached camera that displays images on a video monitor. Laparoscopic surgery has fewer risks than open surgery and may cause less discomfort and scarring. A quicker recovery time is possible with laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery may not be the best option for all patients; open surgery, which involves a single significant abdominal incision, may be preferred. You might need open surgery if you are extremely obese, have had stomach surgery in the past, or have other complicated medical conditions. Following weight-loss surgery, the number of pounds lost varies depending on the patient and the procedure. One study found that after a year, people who had a gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, or adjustable gastric banding procedure had lost between 38 and 87 pounds. Although there were more postoperative complications with gastric bypass surgery, the average weight loss from the three most common procedures was higher. The majority of people did eventually put on some weight, but it was usually minimal compared to what they had lost initially. You might lose weight at a different rate. In addition to surgery, keep in mind that maintaining healthy lifestyle habits will help you reach your goal.
