The obesity epidemic impacts over 30% of adults in Punjab and rates continue rising. Carrying substantial excess body fat puts individuals at higher risk for diabetes, heart disease, cancer, arthritis, liver disease, sleep apnea, inflammation, and even depression.
When diligent lifestyle changes and medical therapies fail to generate meaningful lasting weight reduction for obese individuals, metabolic or bariatric surgery should be considered. Over a dozen reputable hospitals across Punjab offer various Weight Loss Surgery in Punjab options with favorable long-term results.
In this guide, we explore some leading surgical weight management options and highlight how Prolife Hospitals delivers excellent bariatric care focused on sustained health transformation.
Understanding Weight Loss Surgeries
Several types of minimally invasive, metabolic surgeries promote weight reduction through restriction and malabsorption:
Lap Band Procedure: An adjustable belt placed around the upper stomach supplying the sensation of fullness with a smaller capacity
Sleeve Gastrectomy: Stomach permanently reduced to banana-shaped sleeve limiting food intake
Gastric Bypass: Stomach divided with intestines connected directly below to reduce absorption
Duodenal Switch: Similar to gastric bypass but also bypasses a larger intestinal segment curbing calorie uptake
These techniques facilitate durable weight loss by limiting stomach capacity and calorie absorption from food while benefiting gut hormones and glucose metabolism. Patients must commit to diet and exercise changes to ensure success.
Benefits of Weight Loss Surgery
For severely overweight individuals (BMI 35+), weight loss surgery delivers profound enhancements to overall health and quality of life, including:
– Average long-term loss of 50-70% excess body weight in compliant patients
– 76% resolution of high blood pressure, 70% resolution of diabetes
– Improved fertility, pregnancy outcomes and reduced future cancer risks
– Increased lifespans – Obesity-related mortality reduced by 30-50%
– Physical function improvements – Mobility, endurance and pain reduction
– Better mental health – Raised self-confidence and reduced rates of depression
In essence, sustained weight reduction facilitates improved cardiometabolic factors while reducing obesity-related disease burdens – generating dramatic enhancements to physical health and emotional well-being.
