Here, we provide the best, clinically proven weight loss procedures, performed by trained professionals in a state-of-the-art manner that complies with European and American standards.
Sleeve Gastrectomy (Gastric Sleeve Surgery)
One of the most prevalent and effective bariatric procedures in the world is sleeve gastrectomy. This procedure provides a long, narrow stomach by permanently removing 75 to 80% of the stomach.
How It Operates
Reduces the stomach’s size, creating less room for food. You’ll feel satisfied with a lot less food than you used to, and you’ll eat less to shed pounds.
Decreases hunger by producing less of the hunger hormone ghrelin.
Prevents the need for intestinal bypass and keeps regular digestion.
Advantages
Significant and long-lasting weight loss Resolving or improving comorbidities associated with obesity, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea shorter hospital stay and a faster return to regular tasks compared to more complex surgery Sleeve gastrectomy is in particular suitable for patients who want minimal postoperative care and great weight loss success.
Gastric Bypass Surgery (Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass)
A very successful combination of restriction and malabsorption is gastric bypass. Patients with metabolic problems like uncontrolled diabetes or morbid obesity benefit most from it.
How It Operates
A small stomach pouch is created and left to fill with food.
A new route that allows food to bypass a portion of your small intestine
Satiety rises and consumption of calories falls.
Advantages
Quick and effective weight loss
significant effect on metabolism, especially the remission of diabetes
When complemented by lifestyle modifications, long-term success
People with severe metabolic abnormalities or those who have not experienced the desired weight loss outcomes are often prescribed gastric bypass surgery.
Types of Gastric Bypass Procedures
One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass, or Mini Gastric Bypass (OAGB)
• Anastomosis of a single intestine. The intestines are connected just once.
Shortened duration of operation
Effective weight reduction and metabolic adjustment.
Gastric Bypass Roux-en-Y
The gold standard for bypassing
Two intestinal intersections
Excellent long-term results with metabolic problems and weight loss
Our surgeons spend time figuring out the best bypass procedure for each patient.
Which Bariatric Procedure Is Best for Type 2?
Bariatric surgery is the best treatment for metabolic disease in obese people with type 2 diabetes, in addition to being a weight loss option. Because of its potent hormonal and metabolic impacts, Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is widely regarded as the gold standard of bariatric surgery for diabetes.
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: Why?
The duodenum and proximal small bowel have not yet received any of the contents.
Hormone activation: Activates several potent hormones associated to weight loss, like GLP-1 and PYY.
greatly increases insulin sensitivity
may cause diabetes to go into remission without requiring weight loss.
Consequently, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is often recommended in:
Patients with long-standing type 2 diabetes
Patients using insulin
Patients with poor metabolic control or high HbA1c levels
Is It Possible to Use a Mini Gastric Bypass for Diabetes?
One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass, or OAGB, is a mini gastric bypass that provides superior metabolic outcomes for subgroups with severe type 2 diabetes.
It could be taken into account when:
BMI is excessively high.
It is preferred to have a shorter operating time.
There are several types of revision surgery or a higher operating risk.
However, a mini gastric bypass is not the first option for all people with diabetes due to a higher risk of bile reflux and increased malabsorption.
Customized Planning for Metabolic Surgery
At NewMe Obesity Clinic, a complete metabolic profile is taken into consideration prior a bariatric procedure is decided upon based solely on body weight:The profile
Diabetes severity and duration
Use of insulin or medication
HbA1c values
Related metabolic disorders
To ensure a safe, effective, and long-lasting metabolic result, our bariatric surgery specialists carefully choose the appropriate procedure.

Final Note
The choice between Mini Gastric Bypass and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass is based on a personalized metabolic and clinical evaluation. At NewMe Obesity Clinic, our experienced bariatric surgery team selects the most appropriate procedure to ensure safe, effective, and sustainable outcomes for each patient.
Gastric Balloon Procedures
For people who prefer a less invasive option or are not candidates for surgery, gastric balloon therapy is a non-surgical weight management option.
How It Operates
The stomach is filled with a flexible silicone balloon.
The balloon helps regulate diet while taking up space.
Promotes Portion Control and Early Satiation
Gastric Balloon Types
Endoscopic Gastric Balloon: inserted through the mouth while under slight sedation.
Ellipse balloon, or swallowable balloon There is no endoscopy required because this balloon can be swallowed.
Repositionable Balloons: It has been feasible to adjust the volume during treatment
Benefits
No surgery or incisions
Quick restoration
Ideal for weight loss prior to surgery or mild to moderate obesity
When paired with nutritional counseling and lifestyle support, a gastric balloon procedure can be highly successful even though it may be temporary.
