Surgical Obesity Treatments

Prof. Dr. Hasan Erdem Obesity Clinic offers the following surgical obesity treatments:

Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy)

The most popular bariatric procedure at the clinic. It involves removing approximately 80% of the stomach to limit food intake and reduce hunger hormones. It is performed laparoscopically and is ideal for patients with a BMI over 35.

Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y)

A gold-standard procedure that reroutes the digestive system to both limit food intake and reduce calorie absorption. It is highly effective for patients with severe obesity or those suffering from chronic acid reflux and Type 2 Diabetes.

Revision Surgery

Some patients undergo weight-loss surgery without achieving their desired results or may experience complications. For these individuals, Prof. Erdem offers specialized revision procedures to restore metabolic health.

Non-Surgical Weight Loss

Prof. Dr. Hasan Erdem Obesity Clinic offers the following non-surgical weight loss treatments:

Gastric Balloon

A soft, saline-filled balloon is placed in the stomach endoscopically (without surgery). It occupies space to create a feeling of fullness. The balloon is removed after 6 to 12 months.

Gastric Botox

A modern, non-invasive technique where botulinum toxin is injected into the stomach muscles via endoscopy. This slows digestion and suppresses appetite, helping patients lose a moderate amount of weight without the need for a permanent surgical change.

Metabolic Surgery (Diabetes Surgery)

The clinic specializes in surgeries designed specifically to treat Type 2 Diabetes in obese patients. By altering the digestive tract, these procedures can significantly improve metabolic function.

In many cases, they lead to a major reduction or even complete remission of diabetic symptoms and dependence on medication.

 

 

 

 

Faq

Prof. Dr. Hasan Erdem performs gastric sleeve surgery using laparoscopy, where about 75–80% of the stomach is removed to create a smaller, tube-shaped stomach that limits food intake and lowers hunger. The procedure uses small incisions and advanced tools to reduce scarring and recovery time, with the digestive tract left intact. This approach helps patients feel full sooner and promotes sustained weight loss

At Hasan Erdem Obesity Clinic, gastric sleeve surgery is led by Prof. Dr. Hasan Erdem, who has performed over 8,000 successful bariatric surgeries. The clinic provides personalized treatment planning, comprehensive medical evaluation, and structured long-term follow-up care. International patients also benefit from organized all-inclusive packages and continuous post-operative support.

The clinic evaluates each patient’s overall health, body mass index, and obesity-related conditions to decide between gastric sleeve and gastric bypass. Factors such as type 2 diabetes, severe reflux, or the amount of weight loss needed help guide the recommendation. The surgeon discusses these clinical factors with the patient to choose the safest and most effective surgery for long-term results.

Mini gastric bypass is a simpler form of bypass surgery that creates a small stomach pouch and connects it to a loop of intestine, promoting weight loss with fewer surgical connections and generally shorter operating time. This technique aims to reduce risks while still combining stomach restriction and reduced calorie absorption, and is offered as an effective option for patients needing a stronger metabolic effect than the sleeve alone
