Duodenal Switch

Is a procedure that results in the greatest overall weight loss. In addition, it offers the best control of metabolic conditions, like diabetes. The operation is performed in two steps. First, we conduct a sleeve gastrectomy, removing around 80 percent of the stomach and converting the remainder into a slender tube. We then divide the small bowel that normally connects to the stomach (called the duodenum) to create the bypass.

Blepharoplasty is a procedure where external incisions are made along the natural lines of the eyelids. While in the lower eyelids the incisions take place over the lower fat bags, in the upper eyelids they are located over the crease that forms when the eye is opened.

During the consultation with the plastic surgeon, you must explain your expectations so that, after evaluating your eyelids, he or she can inform you which option is best for you. For every patient, there is a surgery.

If you recognize that you have a disease and/or take certain medications, you should tell your plastic surgeon and anesthesiologist.

Following the procedure, you may experience severe pain and swelling over the surgical area for the first four (4) days, which will gradually begin to subside.

During the first days, cold or warm compresses should be applied, protecting the skin from burns.

At the end of the first week, the plastic surgeon will remove the stitches and, depending on your progress, will inform you when you can resume your daily activities.

Increased volume of the face, blurred vision, vomiting and uncontrollable pain are warning signs that, if they occur, should be reported to the plastic surgeon immediately.

Who can have this procedure done?

The candidates are men and women who find it difficult to open their eyes wide; to such an extent that they not only have problems with their vision, but also have an image of continuous fatigue.

How old should the person to have this procedure be?

The majority of patients are men and women over 35 years of age. However, there are younger patients.

How long will it take for the scars to be removed?

During the first month, the scars may look reddish. But with the passage of time and with the necessary care, they will return to the normal color of the skin.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
