Weight loss procedures

We help you to understand how each type of stomach reduction works and to make the right choice for you.

Gastric bypass

This surgical procedure divides the stomach into a large, inactive part and a smaller part that continues to be used for food intake. The small intestine is connected directly to this smaller part of the stomach ("pouch"). As with the gastric sleeve, you will need significantly less food to feel full - the basis for permanent weight loss.

Mini gastric bypass

This gastric surgery is a simplified version of the gastric bypass described above. Due to the lower surgical risks with equally positive results, this procedure is now preferred in most cases. However, special conditions may make the "classic" gastric bypass the better choice.

FAQ

What does a gastric reduction in Turkey cost?

Turkey is an excellent place to go if you are looking for high medical standards at comparatively affordable prices. Thanks to the favorable local infrastructure, a gastric reduction is significantly cheaper than in Germany or other Western countries. A complex procedure such as the gastric sleeve operation, including comprehensive care and aftercare, costs $2,990 USD in our most affordable package. You only have to pay for the flight costs. With a little advance planning, flights can be available at cheap prices. Our tip: Comparison portals such as Skyscanner or Kayak help you find the best price!
