Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery
The clinic specializes in Scarless Sleeve Gastrectomy. This technique uses a single incision in the navel, allowing the surgical mark to stay hidden within the natural indentation of the belly button. Prof. Dr. Burhan Mayir also performs Bikini Line Sleeve Gastrectomy, where incisions are placed below the underwear line for aesthetic concealment. Standard sleeve gastrectomy is also available.
Metabolic solutions for weight loss and Type 2 diabetes control include:
- Roux-en-Y (RNY) gastric bypass
- Mini-gastric bypass
- Transit bipartition (metabolic surgery)
- Gastric sleeve and gastric bypass revision surgery
- Endoscopic gastric balloon insertion
Procedures such as the gastric bypass aim for sustainable weight loss of 60–80% and can lead to improvements in conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep apnea.
