Carrying excess weight can impact not only your physical health but also your self-esteem and overall quality of life. Gastric sleeve surgery is a widely recognized option for patients seeking a transformative, long-term solution. This minimally invasive procedure helps reduce the size of the stomach, which in turn limits food intake and supports sustained weight reduction.

At Manchester Private Hospital in Manchester, we’re dedicated to guiding you through every step of your bariatric journey, from initial consultation to comprehensive aftercare.

What Is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

A gastric sleeve operation, also called sleeve gastrectomy, is a weight loss procedure where a portion of the stomach is removed to create a smaller, tube-like stomach. This reduces food intake and lowers hunger hormone production, making it easier to manage portions and maintain long-term weight loss.

Who Can Benefit from a Gastric Sleeve?

  • Individuals with a BMI of 35+ or 30+ with weight-related health issues
  • People who struggle with obesity and have not succeeded with diet & exercise
  • Those seeking long-term weight control without invasive gastric bypass surgery

If you’re researching “gastric sleeve surgery near me,” our expert team in Manchester is ready to assist with a thorough evaluation of your medical history and weight-loss goals.

Key Benefits of a Gastric Sleeve

  • Significant & Sustainable Weight Loss – Lose 60-70% of excess weight within the first year
  • Improved Health & Reduced Risks – Helps manage diabetes, high blood pressure, and joint pain
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery – Small incisions mean fewer gastric sleeve scars and faster healing
  • Appetite Control – Decreases ghrelin, the hormone responsible for hunger
  • Boosts Confidence & Energy – Feel lighter, healthier, and more active

The Gastric Sleeve Operation: Step-by-Step

Before the day of your gastric sleeve operation, you’ll undergo pre-operative assessments and possibly a specialized diet to prepare your body. During surgery, the surgeon removes about 75–80% of the stomach using a laparoscopic technique, leaving a narrow “sleeve.” This approach typically requires a shorter hospital stay and leads to fewer complications compared to more invasive surgeries.

Gastric Sleeve Recovery Time

Gastric sleeve recovery time varies, but most patients resume light activities within one to two weeks. Initially, you’ll follow a graduated diet plan starting with clear liquids and transitioning to soft foods, eventually returning to a balanced, protein-rich diet. Regular follow-up appointments at Manchester Private Hospital ensure your nutritional needs are met and your weight loss progresses smoothly.

Gastric Sleeve Scars and Aftercare

Because the procedure is laparoscopic, gastric sleeve scars are typically minimal and placed discreetly. Your surgeon will guide you on caring for these small incisions, as well as managing any discomfort. Continued support, including nutritional counseling, is crucial for sustaining weight loss and maintaining your health over the long term.
