What Is Sleeve Plus Surgery?

Sleeve Plus Surgery is a bariatric procedure that combines a sleeve gastrectomy with a bypass of a portion of the small intestine. The surgery reduces stomach size while also altering the digestive pathway to decrease calorie absorption and improve metabolic function.

It is often considered for individuals with severe obesity or those seeking enhanced weight loss outcomes compared to sleeve gastrectomy alone.

How Does It Work?

Sleeve Plus Surgery works through two mechanisms. First, the stomach is reduced into a smaller sleeve, limiting food intake and promoting earlier fullness. Second, part of the small intestine is bypassed, reducing calorie absorption and influencing hormones that help regulate blood sugar and appetite.

This combined approach supports significant and sustained weight loss while improving obesity-related medical conditions.
