Bariatric surgery – is one of the methods of obesity treatment. The result of this type of operation — is reduction of the patient''s stomach, limiting the volume of food intake and decreasing the intensity of its absorption. All this ensures a safe and reasonable weight loss of the patient.

Bariatric surgery in Cheju — is a fairly developed branch of medicine. Patients from all over the world go exactly to this city for obesity treatment. It should be noted that there are certain indications for such an operation: age over 18 years, body mass index more than 40 kg/m² and diseases concomitant with obesity.

Bariatric operations in Cheju are performed using minimally invasive techniques and are carried out under anesthesia.  Such interventions are divided into restrictive — reducing the size of the stomach, malabsorptive — reducing the food absorption by the intestine, and mixed — combining the effect of the two previous types.

It should also be noted that the positive result of bariatric surgery in Cheju also consists in the fact that the patient''s preferences and habits in food choice change significantly, and as a result, life expectancy increases.
