The Surgical Procedures are listed below:

1. Sleeve Gastrostomy: This surgery removes a portion of the stomach that produces hunger hormone Ghrelin leaving a thin sheet known as Gastric Sleeve. It restricts the urge for eating. So, you eat less. This involves a simpler process than Gastric Bypass and even liquids can make you feel full.

2. Gastric Bypass: In this procedure the doctor divides the stomach as well as the bowel and a pouch is created in the upper stomach. The food we eat goes straight to small intestine, bypassing the rest of the stomach. It lowers your appetite and slows down the absorption of nutrients and calories.

3. Gastric Banding: This is a technique by which your surgeon will place a silicon band around your stomach to reduce its size so that you will be satisfied with little intake of food. The band used in Gastric Banding can be adjusted according to your need and this process takes the least time to be performed among the other surgeries and can be reversed.

4. Gastric Balloon: This treatment is very simple. A soft balloon is inserted into your stomach through the mouth and it is then inflated with saline water. It reduces the capacity of the stomach limiting food intake. This procedure is also not time-consuming and you can go back home on the same day. You can lose weight upto 15 to 25 kgs in 6 months.

5. Liposuction: This is a method of sucking out fat cells from the bulgy areas of your body through incisions using a suction device. This helps in reducing weight and improves your body contour.
