Safety & Results of Gastric Sleeve Surgery
The decision for Gastric Sleeve surgery (Sleeve Gastrectomy) is a significant step. It is completely understandable that this decision is accompanied by questions: “Is the procedure really safe?” or “Will the result meet my expectations?”
At Clinichaus, we know that medical safety is based not on promises, but on transparency. In this article, we shed light on the facts regarding safety and the variability of results so that you can make a well-founded decision.
How safe is gastric sleeve surgery?
Gastric sleeve surgery is considered a standardized procedure today. Safety at Clinichaus relies on minimally invasive techniques (keyhole surgery), strict clinical protocols, and the professional routine of our specialized surgeons. However, safety begins with your honest disclosure of medical history during pre-operative diagnostics.
Are there risks or possible side effects?
Every medical intervention brings theoretical risks. In addition to general surgical risks, topics such as temporary reflux or wound healing disorders are discussed with the gastric sleeve. These complications are rare with modern methods but must be discussed in detail in a personal conversation, as your risk profile depends individually on factors like BMI and age.
Why do results vary from person to person?
Results with the gastric sleeve can vary. There is no biological template, as factors like metabolic individuality, starting weight, and above all, personal lifestyle after the operation play a decisive role. The gastric sleeve is a support that requires active cooperation in nutrition.
What role does personal consultation play in safety?
Consultation at Clinichaus serves for individual risk assessment and expectation management. Only when all medical findings are available and you feel comprehensively informed should a decision be made. True safety arises where no questions remain open.
