A gastric sleeve may look simple on a diagram, but the changes it creates go far beyond stomach size.

During the procedure, a large portion of the stomach is removed, leaving a smaller sleeve-shaped pouch. This helps you feel full sooner, reduces hunger hormones, and can support better blood-sugar control and improvements in conditions linked to obesity.

📲 If you’re exploring whether the gastric sleeve could be part of your journey, don't hesitate to book a consultation with our expert team - we're here to guide you through every step.

Some pre-op instructions can feel a little unexpected - but each one plays an important role in keeping you safe and setting you up for success.

Here are 3 things your bariatric surgeon may ask you to do before surgery:

1️⃣ Making your liver smaller and more flexible (through your diet) will reduce the risk of any damage being caused

2️⃣ Practice eating slowly and chewing extremely well

3️⃣ Do a sleep study - many patients have undiagnosed sleep apnoea, which can affect anaesthesia and recovery

They may seem unusual at first, but these steps help create smoother surgery and better long-term results.

Many people are surprised to learn that bariatric surgery can support fertility!

Excess weight can disrupt hormone balance, affect ovulation, and contribute to conditions like PCOS. In many cases, weight loss after bariatric surgery helps regulate hormones and restore regular ovulation - increasing the chances of conceiving naturally.

Every journey is different, but for some, improved health opens the door to new possibilities.

📲 If you’re considering bariatric surgery and have questions about fertility or future pregnancy, send us a DM to get in touch.

Here’s a simple diagram to help you understand what’s happening inside your body.
