The questions our patients most often ask about results, recovery, and what life looks like after a gastric sleeve.
What kind of results can I expect from a gastric sleeve in three months?
Patients may experience a range of outcomes, as each case is unique. Here are a few of the most common areas of improvement.
Lose Weight
Most people will start to experience weight loss soon after surgery. A combination of fewer and smaller meals will help you lose weight while your body heals. Within the first three months, your body will have undergone sufficient healing, enabling you to actively take part in your normal daily routines. By following the diet plans provided by ALO Bariatrics and incorporating regular exercise, patients can expect to see a reduction in total excess weight of up to 40%.
Improved Health
In one study, nearly 30% of type 2 diabetes patients went into remission within two months after having gastric sleeve surgery — their blood sugar levels well controlled enough that they likely won't experience new complications from diabetes. Significant improvements in obesity-related diseases like hypertension also become easier to manage over time.
Feel Better
You'll feel better about yourself as you begin to see your progress. A healthy nutritious diet, moderate exercise, and adequate sleep will be the focus areas in the early stages of recovery from gastric sleeve surgery.
Will I have a lot of excess skin from my gastric sleeve procedure?
Weight loss after gastric sleeve surgery can lead to excess skin. While you're losing weight, your skin may not necessarily get smaller at the same rate, resulting in loose, hanging skin in some areas. The amount of excess skin will vary from person to person, depending on factors like weight, age, smoking habits, and genetics.
For some patients, body-contouring surgery or other medical treatments may be a possibility to tighten the loose skin. Over time, some patients' skin will tighten and improve naturally.
