Bariatric surgery, often referred to as weight loss surgery, is a medical procedure designed to help people struggling with obesity achieve significant and sustained weight loss. It involves making changes to the digestive system to limit the amount of food the stomach can hold and/or the absorption of nutrients. This can be achieved through various surgical techniques, such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, or gastric banding.
