Wie ist der genaue Ablauf bei Weight Doctos BARIATRICS®?

Unter Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® verstehen wir die modernsten Verfahren, um eine dauerhafte Magenverkleinerung herzustellen. Alle Verfahren werden im Rahmen einer minimal-invasiven Magen-OP durchgeführt. In Vorbereitung dazu machen wir eine gastroenterologische Voruntersuchung, um sicherzugehen, dass kein Grund gegen eine Magen-OP bei Ihnen spricht. Die Verfahren von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® selbst werden unmittelbar danach laparoskopisch unter Vollnarkose durchgeführt. Eine minimal-invasive OP dauert meist 60 bis 120 Minuten. Im Regelfall geht eine Magen-OP im Rahmen von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® mit einem stationären Aufenthalt von 1-3 Nächten einher. Dies bedeutet, dass Sie unmittelbar nach dem Eingriff noch ein paar Tage bei uns bleiben, um Ihre Patientensicherheit in die Händen unseres erfahrenen Pflegepersonals zu legen. So ist sichergestellt, dass Ihr Körper die Folgen der OP gut verkraftet und den Weg der Genesung eingeschlagen hat. Bevor Sie nach Hause kommen, machen wir noch einige Blutuntersuchungen. Für eine zügige und gute Heilung ist nach dem Eingriff für 4-6 Wochen eine spezielle flüssigkeitsbasierte Nahrung vorgegeben. Nach einer gastroenterologischen Kontrolluntersuchung wird Ihre Ernährung dann in Rücksprache mit unseren Coaches schrittweise bis zum Erreichen des Normalzustands ohne weitere Einschränkungen wieder aufgebaut.

Muss ich nach einer Weight Doctos BARIATRICS® Magen-OP Weiteres beachten?

Ja, da die gewichtsreduzierende Magen-OP von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® Ihren Verdauungsprozess ganz entscheidend verändert, müssen Sie lebenslang Nahrungsergänzungsmittel einnehmen, um Sie mit wichtigen Nährstoffen zu versorgen und so eine Mangelernährung zu unterbinden. Sie werden täglich Multivitaminpräparate sowie u.U. auch Vitamin D-, Vitamin B-, Eisen- und Kalzium-Präparate einnehmen. Die genaue Zusammensetzung ist etwas abhängig von Ihren individuellen Blutwerten. Natürlich erhalten Sie eine vollständige und detaillierte Liste der bei Ihnen erforderlichen Präparate von Ihrem Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® Behandlungsteam. Wissenschaftliche Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Patienten, die sich gesund ernähren, die verschriebenen Nahrungsergänzungsmittel regelmäßig einnehmen und ihre Blutwerte regelmäßig checken lassen, langfristig die besten Ergebnisse erzielen.

Welche Vorteile habe ich nach einer Magen-OP mithilfe von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®?

Der mediznische und emotionale Nutzen nach einer Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® Magen-OP zeigt sich schon kurze Zeit nach dem Eingriff. Langfristg gesehen kann eine Magen-OP folgende Benefits bringen: Erheblicher Gewichtsverlust bis zur Erreichung Ihres Normalgewichts Verbesserung des Gesundheitszustands bei Diabetes Mellitus Typ 2 Senkung des Blutdrucks Senkung der Cholesterinwerte Linderung und Reduzierung von Atempausen während des Schlafs (Schlafapnoe) Linderung und Reduzierung von Sodbrennen Erhebliche Entlastung von Gelenken, Verbesserung der Mobilität und Belastbarkeit Verbesserung der Stimmung, Steigerung des Selbstwertgefühls und Beginn einer neuen Selbstliebe Entspannung bei Asthmatikern Spürbarer Rückgang von Migräneanfällen

Welche Risiken bestehen bei einer Magen-OP mithilfe von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®?

Alle Verfahren unserer Behandlungsteams von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® werden minimal-invasiv auf dem Stand der neuesten medizinischen Erkenntnisse, unter Einhaltung von gesetzlichen und behördlichen Hygienestandards und unter Verwendung qualitativ hochwertiger, erprobter und zugelassener Materialien durchgeführt. Unsere Fachärzte sind absolute Spezialisten auf ihrem Behandlungsgebiet und haben durch hohe Fallzahlen eine bemerkenswerte Routine entwickelt. Und dennoch handelt es sich bei unseren Verfahren um chirurgische Operationen, die immer noch mit Risiken verbunden sind, die es von jedem Patienten zu beachten gilt. Diese sind gering und meist sehr gut medizinisch kontrollierbar. Trotzdem ist es wichtig, sich folgender Risiken im Zusammenhang mit einem Eingriff von Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® bewusst zu sein: Auftreten einer Infektion durch Austreten von Magensäften in die Körperhöhle Wundinfektionen an den Inzisionsstellen Schwächung der Bauchwand und/oder Entwicklung von Bauchwandhernien Entwicklung einer Gallenblasenerkankung und/oder Gallensteinbildung bedingt durch den OP-bedingten, schnellen Gewichtsverlust Blutgerinnsel, die eine Lungenembolie verursachen können Vitaminmangelzustände, die durch die regelmäßige Einnahme von Vitamin- und Mineralstoffsupplemente verhindert oder stark reduziert werden können; wir empfehlen regelmäßig zur Nachsorge zu gehen und Blutuntersuchungen durchführen zu lassen Wie bei jeder Operation können auch lebensgefährliche Notsituationen eintreten, z.B. im Zusammenhang mit der Narkose oder auch in Verbindung mit einer unentdeckten postoperativen Komplikation; daher raten die Weight Doctors dazu, einen solchen Eingriff nur unter den besten Voraussetzungen und von erfahrenen, für diese Art von Operationen spezialisierten Fachärzten mit ihren routinierten Behandlungsteams durchführen zu lassen.

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® is a collection of minimally-invasive gastric reduction procedures chosen by our team of highly specialised bariatric surgeons to achieve gentle and effective results. Our procedures are scientifically proven, adhere to the gold standard of today’s medicine and are safely performed by our team of experienced specialists.

Patient safety is the number one priority at the Weight Doctors. Our main focus is minimising medical risks whilst ensuring the shortest downtime following weight loss surgery. That’s why we not only employ a team of highly specialised bariatric doctors with many years of experience, but also apply the gold-standard of laparoscopic tools and equipment. We source our medical equipment from world-renowned manufacturers: Aesculap and Johnson & Johnson. If in the incredibly rare event that something unexpected should occur, our team of experts at our Intermediate Care Facility—set up exclusively for Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®—will efficiently and effectively take care of any complications. With the Weight Doctors, you are always in the best hands.

At the Weight Doctors: laparoscopic technology for most significant weight loss results

How does Weight Doctors set the best foundation for safe and effective weight loss? Our weight loss surgery utilities laparoscopic (“keyhole”) technology, thereby remaining minimally invasive, whilst being highly effective. Fine surgical instruments are inserted through three tiny punctures in the abdominal area. Using this laparoscopic technology, we reduce the size of the stomach following the specific method of the chosen procedure. Unlike the endoscopic technology of the Weight Doctors SLEEVE®, which reduces the stomach from the inside of the stomach, Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® reduces the stomach from the outside.

Our team of specialised and experienced doctors perform the minimally invasive weight loss surgery safely, effectively, and within a relatively short period of time. Following the surgery, you will have a short inpatient stay of up to 3 nights in one of our exclusive private clinics, receiving the best care from our qualified nursing staff.

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® procedures leave almost no scarring on the abdominal area, making the gastric surgery practically invisible to the human eye. All that remain are 3 small blemishes equivalent to the size of a little birthmark. Depending on the chosen procedure, this can result in a reduction of stomach volume by up to 90%. This is the maximum stomach reduction possible, using current medical technologies.

Depending on the chosen procedure and with your commitment, it is possible to lose total excess weight within 6 months following treatment. Our patients witness something even more remarkable than just the physical changes from weight loss: Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® technologies help our patients enjoy significant improvement to their general health and quality of life. Common excess weight-related comorbidities can be significantly improved or, are even gone for good. Our patients often share their renewed zest for life, an enjoyment with their daily routine and new hobbies. And with the new-found feeling of self-appreciation and self-confidence, our patients share an excitement in becoming more socially active and making new social connections.

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® is helping address the largest global pandemic

For a rapidly growing number of people, being overweight or obese is a struggle of a lifetime. For many, minimally invasive weight loss surgery is the answer to finally living the life they have always wanted. However, people who are overweight or obese have a significantly higher risk of developing serious and life-threatening medical conditions. In many cases, this can lead to serious impairments in physical and mental health – with dramatic consequences. Research shows that millions of people have a significantly reduced life expectancy because they are overweight.

Leading the list of common co-morbidities associated with obesity are type 2 diabetes dyslipidemia (high blood cholesterol), hypertension (high blood pressure) and fatty liver disease. Hypertension is directly correlated to cardiovascular disease, seeing increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Other conditions such as respiratory problems, sleep disorders or joint problems are also commonly experienced with obesity.

The good news: things can be turned around. Significant and sustainable weight loss can drastically reduce the risk of developing secondary diseases. In some cases, weight loss can even reverse these conditions completely. And another thing: you’re not alone in this. There are many people around you who are equally affected by this: take strength in the power of community to see a chance for change. Obesity and excess weight is a growing pandemic which is why science and practice are working feverishly to find a solution. Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® is our answer to positively impact this global challenge and help our patients in a pragmatic and lifechanging way.

The procedures of Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®

Gastric Bypass: For maximum restriction

The gastric bypass as part of the Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® program is the most restrictive gastric reduction of bariatric procedures. Based on modern laparoscopic “keyhole” surgery it is performed using one of two techniques:

The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: considered the gold standard among gastric bypass operations or,
The Omega-Loop bypass (OLB): also known as the ‘mini gastric bypass,’ (although it is by no means mini), it is just as restrictive and invasive as Roux-en-Y.

The gastric bypass is performed using minimally–invasive laparoscopy. The bypass is performed from the outside of the abdomen; here a few small “keyhole” punctures are made to the abdominal area, through which the finest surgical instruments are inserted. Through these keyhole punctures the doctor performs the surgery under visual control.

To begin, a small stomach pouch is formed from the upper part of the stomach using stapling instruments. This small stomach pouch is detached from the remainder of the stomach (the larger section of the stomach). The remainder of the stomach (i.e. residual stomach) is no longer directly involved in digestion. In the second step, the small intestine is separated into two sections. One end of the small intestine is brought up to the newly-formed stomach pouch and connected to it. The other end of the small intestine, which is still connected to the larger part of the stomach – the residual stomach – is reconnected to the gastrointestinal tract. This creates a passage for the digestive juices. The rest of the stomach is returned to its original function and participates in digestion a little later.

To simplify: the small intestine is connected to the “new” small stomach pouch. Food is ingested into the small stomach pouch and then moves directly into the small intestine. Therefore, most of the food consumed bypasses the stomach and part of the small intestine (up to 90% of ingested food), so that both food intake and calorie intake are significantly reduced.

Due to the new dominant stomach pouch being significantly smaller, patients will feel satiety from much smaller volumes of food. We also know that subsequent changes to gut hormones such as ghrelin, as a consequence of surgery, lead to a much-reduced appetite.

The gastric bypass procedure takes approximately 120 minutes.

Gastric Sleeve: Fastest regeneration

The gastric sleeve by Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® is the least invasive of bariatric surgeries and is based on modern laparoscopic keyhole surgery. The gastric sleeve is based on the LSG (Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy) technology, the leading technology among surgical experts worldwide.

Applying the LSG technology the procedure begins with a laparoscopy. A few small punctures are made from the outside of the abdomen, through which tiny surgical instruments are inserted. The surgeon then forms a tubular-shaped stomach; reducing the stomach’s capacity, from top to bottom.

Unlike the endoscopic suturing technology of the Weight Doctors SLEEVE®, with the gastric sleeve the stomach is modified from the outside, i.e., in the abdominal cavity. With the help of surgical stapling instruments, the stomach is cut along its entire vertical length and a large part of the stomach is removed. What remains is a narrow, tubular-shaped stomach of approximately 150-200 ml in volume. This is about 80–85% less than the original stomach volume. The separated larger part of the stomach is safely removed from the body. The procedure takes approximately 60-90 minutes.

Who is suitable for minimally invasive weight loss surgery with the help of Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®?

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® is recommended for individuals with BMI of 45, and in individual cases between a BMI of 40 and 45. Individuals with a BMI less than 40 may be better suited to the Weight Doctors SLEEVE® program; gentle and effective weight loss procedures using endoscopic technology. Nevertheless, a BMI of 45 often means that an adult man is approximately 50 kg overweight, and a female adult approximately 40 kg overweight: in both cases an intervention is highly recommended. As with all treatments for obesity, a successful intervention will always be dependent on the individual’s commitment to positive habits across nutrition, exercise, their personal motivation and overall behaviours.

Before any intervention can be considered by the Weight Doctors it is necessary to ensure that conventional weight loss attempts have been exhausted. This means that classic weight loss diets, medication and exercise therapies have not led to lasting success. Please contact us and we will clarify whether minimally-invasive weight loss surgery is a suitable option for you.

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® can help prevent the yo-yo effect of regaining weight

This is because the changes occur quickly and carry the risk of quickly becoming overwhelming. Only by taking personal responsibility can you ensure that weight loss is successful and can be maintained in the long term – ideally for the rest of your life.

Above all, constant snacking and snacking, the recurring intake of unhealthy food and fast food as well as the intake of sugary, light and, above all, alcoholic drinks are the main drivers for a new weight gain. Always bear in mind that giving up such temptations for the most part is only a small price to pay for the new energy and daily relief you will gain in your life through gastric surgery with the help of Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®.
