Gastric Bypass in Malaga

Laparoscopic surgery to treat obesity in Málaga

The laparoscopic gastric bypass we perform in Málaga is a highly effective weight loss procedure, thanks to its dual mechanism of action, combining both restrictive and malabsorptive elements. First, the stomach’s capacity is reduced by creating a small pouch of approximately 50 cc. Then, about 150 cm of the small intestine is bypassed to limit the absorption of certain nutrients, especially fats. This comprehensive approach significantly contributes to the success of weight loss in our patients.
