It works by occupying space in the stomach, thus promoting a feeling of fullness and helping reduce food intake. This method is intended for those who have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone and are looking for a less invasive option compared to bariatric surgery.

  • Scarless Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Turkey

    Scarless gastric sleeve surgery, also known as endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), is a revolutionary weight loss procedure that offers the benefits of traditional gastric sleeve surgery without visible scars.

    This minimally invasive technique is performed using an endoscope, a flexible tube with a camera and suturing device, which is inserted through the mouth to reshape the stomach. By reducing the stomach's size, patients experience significant weight loss and improvements in obesity-related health conditions.

    Gastric Sleeve Without Scar – Turkey / Antalya – Cost £3,190
    In a scarless gastric sleeve, the stomach is reduced in size by removing a large portion of the stomach to create a tubular structure. Unlike traditional open or laparoscopic surgeries that involve making multiple small incisions, the procedure is performed with just one small incision in the belly button area.
    • What is the hardest thing about gastric sleeve surgery?

    The hardest part of the surgery is the incisions healing on your abdomen. But after a week or two, the pain is gone. I followed the diet schedule to a tee. The liquid diet didn't bother me because I was on track to get my life back…plus seeing the weight loss was a great encouragement.
     
    • Do scars from gastric sleeve go away?

    While individual healing timelines may vary, most patients can expect significant improvement in scar appearance within the first year post-surgery. Embracing patience and practicing self-care are essential components of navigating the healing journey following bariatric surgery.

    Gastric sleeve: the scarless stomach reduct​ion

    Gastric sleeve surgery is the surgical weight-loss procedure that has seen the most worldwide growth over the last five years. It reduces the stomach is reduced so that the patient feels full after eating small or moderate amounts of food, which enables weight loss.
     
    The weight loss is due to two mechanisms: the restrictive mechanism reduces the stomach’s volume and capacity to hold food and patients eat less because they have a smaller appetite due to a hormonal mechanism. In this article below, highly distinguished general surgeon, Mr Parv Sains, provides more of a detailed insight into the surgery. 
     

    Can gastric sleeve surgery be performed laparoscopically? 

    Depending on the characteristics of each patient, the surgery can be performed through a conventional laparoscopy (keyhole operation) with five mini incisions or single-incision assisted laparoscopic surgery, which is carried out by making a single umbilical incision, leaving an almost unnoticeable scar. The operation takes about 60 minutes and because no joint or bypass is performed on the intestines, potential complications and risks are limited.
     

    Who is this technique suitable for?

    There are no absolute indications and each patient should be studied by a qualified professional who will establish the best surgical treatment to combat their obesity. Some clinics use the following guidelines for patients who are candidates for gastric sleeve surgery:
     
    • Patients older than 50 years and those who have a BMI (Body Mass Index) greater than 50kg/m2.
    • Patients between 20 and 50 years of age, with a BMI between 35 and 50kg/m2
    • Patients with conditions associated with obesity (diabetes, hypertension, increased cholesterol, heart or respiratory diseases).

    What are the advantages of this technique?

    You can eat anything in small amounts, five or six times a day, while preserving normal digestive functioning. Patients do not suffer from a loss of vitamin-retention function, as in other more aggressive surgical procedures, nor do they have bouts of diarrhoea. Because the surgery does not affect the small intestine, everything that is eaten is absorbed. Weight loss depends on each patient but is usually between 60-70% of the excess weight, much of which is lost during the first six to nine months. 
     

    How should I prepare for gastric sleeve surgery?

  • Gastric Bypass in Turkey

    Although there are many methods for obesity treatment, surgical procedures such as Gastric Bypass are an effective option for long-term, permanent results and a healthier life. Gastric Bypass is a surgical procedure used for the treatment of obesity. During this procedure, the stomach is reduced to a smaller size and connected to a portion of the small intestine. This allows food to fit into a smaller stomach and decreases nutrient absorption. Gastric Bypass surgery is an effective method in reducing obesity-related health problems and results in long-term weight loss.

    Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon in Antalya

    What is the Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon?

    The Allurion Swallowable Gastric Balloon (Allurion Elipse Gastric Balloon) is the world's first endoscopy- and anesthesia-free gastric balloon. It offers the same effects and mechanism as other gastric balloons. The first gastric balloons were introduced in the 1980s for weight loss purposes. The placement, inflation, and removal of traditional endoscopic gastric balloons required anesthesia and endoscopy. In the 2010s, the Elipse swallowable gastric balloon was developed to overcome these requirements, making it the most widely used gastric balloon in the world.

    Gastric balloons occupy space in the stomach, creating a constant feeling of fullness. They also slow down the passage of food, thereby aiding in the weight loss process. They are a commonly used option for non-surgical obesity treatment and weight loss methods. The Allurion gastric balloon is widely used due to its advantages.

    Elipse Swallowed with water

    The balloon, compressed inside a capsule, is swallowed with the help of water. The capsule is of a size that can be easily swallowed.

    1. The Elipse swallowable gastric balloon is placed in the stomach

    2. Inflated in the stomach
    3. After confirming the position of the balloon using X-ray, it is inflated with water through a thin, flexible tube.
    4. The swallowable gastric balloon is expelled through bowel movements
    5. Naturally expelled
    6. After 16 weeks, the valve of the balloon is opened, and the balloon deflates. It is naturally expelled through the intestines.

    The Allurion Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon is compressed in a capsule shape and can be easily swallowed due to its reduced size. It is sometimes referred to as a gastric balloon pill. The balloon is made of thin, state-of-the-art polyurethane material, which is smooth and causes fewer side effects compared to other gastric balloons. Its thinness does not compromise its durability. Like other gastric balloons, it is resistant to stomach acid for an extended period. These advantages provide a more comfortable experience for individuals who want to lose weight. Additionally, the Elipse (Allurion) Gastric Balloon facilitates easy and natural expulsion from the body after the treatment process.

    The Allurion Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon remains in the stomach for approximately 16 weeks and then deflates on its own, being expelled naturally. During this time, you can expect to lose about 10-15% of your body weight. According to research, the majority of weight loss with the gastric balloon method occurs within the first four months. Its effectiveness diminishes in the subsequent period. However, the Allurion Weight Loss Program lasts for six months and continues even after the balloon is expelled from the body.

    Along with the Allurion Weight Loss Program, individuals are monitored online with the help of the Allurion Smart Scale, Allurion Smart Watch, and the Allurion Mobile Application, all providing support from a registered dietitian. This aims to maintain the nutritional habits and lifestyle changes acquired through the swallowable gastric balloon and prevent weight regain. The results show that individuals can maintain 95% of the weight loss achieved through the program within one year.

    Regarding this topic, you can find the translation of the article summarizing the experiences of 1170 patients related to the Allurion Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon, one of the largest studies conducted on gastric balloons worldwide.

    The Elipse Gastric Balloon can be applied to individuals aged 18 and above with a body mass index (BMI) of 27 or higher.

    It is a preferred method for individuals with obesity for whom surgery is not recommended due to health problems.

    Since it does not require anesthesia and endoscopy, the Elipse swallowable gastric balloon is the ideal weight loss method for individuals who cannot undergo anesthesia.

    However, it cannot be applied to pregnant individuals.

    It is not suitable for individuals who consume excessive alcohol.

    Whether it can be applied to individuals with previous stomach-related conditions is determined by the doctor.

    Since it does not require anesthesia and endoscopy during the procedure, it can be easily applied to individuals for whom anesthesia is not recommended.

    During the procedure, the individual remains fully conscious.

    Due to the lack of removal requirement, there is no need for a second anesthesia, and one of the greatest advantages is that patients only need to visit the clinic once. The comprehensive program that will be applied afterward can be monitored online. Of course, if patients wish to visit us voluntarily, they are always welcome.

    Advantages of the Allurion Swallowable Gastric Balloon
    The biggest advantage of the Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon is its placement by swallowing it with water. That's why it is also called a gastric balloon pill.

    The gastric balloon pill does not require surgical procedures, anesthesia, or endoscopy. Thus, it is the ideal method for patients who are unable to undergo anesthesia or have concerns about anesthesia. It eliminates the possible complications associated with anesthesia. The fact that the patient remains awake and conscious during the procedure minimizes potential stress.

    The application of the swallowable gastric balloon is completed in approximately 15 minutes, which is another advantage.

    Maintaining communication with the patient during the procedure and allowing them to see the entire process contributes to a positive start on their weight loss journey.

    The potential side effects after the procedure are minimal. Due to the thin and smooth structure of the Elipse gastric balloon, it moves comfortably in the stomach, reducing the occurrence of complications and early removal rates compared to traditional endoscopic gastric balloons. While the early removal rate is around 10% for endoscopic gastric balloons, it is around 1% for the Elipse swallowable gastric balloon.

    There is no need for the removal of the Elipse Swallowable Gastric Balloon. The balloon naturally deflates after 16 weeks and is expelled through the intestines. Patients do not need to visit the clinic or doctor again as with other endoscopic balloons. This provides a cost advantage for the patient, especially for those who come from abroad or a distant location.

    High level of patient follow-up effectiveness. Thanks to the Allurion Weight Loss Program, the Allurion Smart Scale, Allurion Smart Watch, and the Allurion Mobile Application provided to our patients, they can continue to monitor their progress regularly, maintain their healthy lifestyle and dietary habits, and share these data online with our registered dietitian to receive controlled guidance.
