Bariatric Surgery Options

AVAILABLE IN PUERTO VALLARTA

Our bariatric surgeons in Puerto Vallarta provide several weight loss surgeries, such as:
Gastric bypass surgery in Mexico

Gastric Bypass

Gastric bypass helps patients feel full after eating less food. The surgery involves dividing the stomach into two sections and connecting the small intestine to the smaller, upper part of the stomach. This surgery can lead to substantial weight loss and lifestyle changes for the better.

Gastric Sleeve

Gastric sleeve surgery also allows patients to limit their caloric intake. A portion of the stomach tissue is removed, and the new, smaller stomach is sealed shut. The result of a gastric sleeve is a reduced stomach capacity and a significantly reduced appetite.

Duodenal Surgery (Duodenal Switch)

The duodenal surgery method involves removing a portion of the stomach and shortening the small intestine. This switch allows food to pass only through the lower portion of the small intestine, reducing caloric absorption.

LAP-BAND

An adjustable band is placed around the stomach to limit stomach capacity. This surgery is unique because it doesn’t require significant surgical changes to the stomach and can be easily reversed.

Weight Loss

The main advantage of bariatric surgery is weight loss. The metabolic changes made possible with bariatric surgery can help you start a new chapter of health in your life.

Improved Physical Health

Obesity can cause a ripple effect in declining health. Your risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, sleep apnea, and other health conditions are reduced with weight loss surgery.

Improved Mental Health

Along with improved physical health, weight loss surgery can have a significantly positive impact on your mental well-being. Weight loss can improve your confidence, mood, and energy.

I had the sleeve done 10 years ago and it done wonders for me but unfortunately I did gain some weight back so I am here now and had the bypass done two days ago. From 10 years ago to today, I have nothing bad to say about this company. Dr Lopez and all of his staff from nurses, coordinators and the drivers. All these people are very professional and do an outstanding job. I would recommend this clinic to anyone that is looking to take this journey and I am sure you will be extremely happy with choosing ALO
