FAQ

Bariatric surgery questions

It depends mainly on your BMI and any related health conditions. Gastric sleeve suits most patients; gastric bypass is often recommended for higher BMI or type 2 diabetes; the gastric balloon suits lower BMI patients or those wanting a non-surgical first step. Share your BMI and health history and we'll recommend the right option, free of charge.
Most surgical procedures require a 1–2 night hospital stay, followed by several more days in Istanbul for monitoring before you fly home — typically 5–7 days in total. The gastric balloon is a day procedure with a shorter recommended stay. Full recovery and adjustment to your new diet continues over the following weeks at home.
Standard pre-op screening includes bloodwork, an upper endoscopy, and cardiology clearance to confirm you're fit for surgery. Depending on your health history, your surgeon may request additional tests — these are all completed on arrival in Istanbul before your procedure date.
Every quote includes your consultation, pre-op screening, the procedure itself, your hospital stay, VIP airport/clinic transfers, and a personalised post-op nutrition plan. Any additional tests or complications are discussed and confirmed separately — never hidden.
