At our specialized bariatric center in Malaysia, we offer evidence-based, medically supervised weight loss procedures, including gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and intragastric balloon. Our multidisciplinary team is committed to helping individuals achieve sustained health improvements through the safest, most effective surgical interventions.
Bariatric surgery in Malaysia is a proven medical procedure that helps individuals achieve significant weight loss by altering the digestive system. This treatment is recommended for those with severe obesity who have not succeeded with diet or exercise alone. Popular options include gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and revision bariatric surgery—performed by experienced bariatric surgeons in Kuala Lumpur.
📌 Fact: According to the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH), the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) 2023 reveals that 54.4% of Malaysian adults are overweight, an increase from 50.1% in 2019. The demand for effective weight loss solutions like bariatric surgery continues to rise across Malaysia.
Gastric sleeve surgery removes about 75–80% of the stomach, leaving a tube-shaped “sleeve.” This limits food intake and reduces hunger hormones, resulting in significant, lasting weight loss.
Gastric bypass surgery creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the small intestine. This reduces calorie absorption and makes you feel full faster, supporting rapid and long-term weight loss.
An intragastric balloon is a temporary, non-surgical procedure where a soft balloon is placed in the stomach and filled with saline. It helps you feel full faster and eat less, supporting weight loss for six months to a year.
Mini gastric bypass involves creating a smaller stomach pouch and connecting it further down the intestine than standard bypass. It combines restriction and mild malabsorption, helping you lose weight effectively.
Gastric banding uses an adjustable band around the upper stomach to limit how much you can eat at one time. It is less invasive, reversible, and effective for gradual weight loss with lifestyle changes.
Surgery for weight loss and to treat conditions like diabetes and hypertension.
A balloon is placed in the stomach to promote fullness and aid weight loss.
