A-Z of Weight Loss surgery in Latvia

Deciding to go down the weight loss surgery route is a choice many suffering from obesity decide to take. While the journey itself will shape and mould your life into a healthier one, there are important aspects to consider before opting for elective surgery. These aspects include where to have your weight loss surgery, which type of weight loss surgery to have, and your financial budget for your bariatric surgery. Fortunately, these questions can be answered easily when looking at having your weight loss surgery abroad, such as in Latvia.

The popularity of bariatric surgery in Latvia has been increasing notably due to the abundance of specialized clinics offering Latvia weight loss surgery, and the highly competitive procedure prices. Weight Loss Riga is a superior clinic boasting exceptional surgeons with formidable expertise and advanced facilities. Therefore, despite offering lower costs compared to those in the UK, our clinic doesn't compromise when it comes to strict standards of medical professionalism and safety. 

Is Weight Loss Surgery Successful?

While it’s important to note that different bariatric surgeries have different levels of success, you can see the success firsthand by looking through the reviews from previous patients who have experienced nothing short of a life-changing transformation. The average weight loss seen 3 years post-surgery is between 50-70% of excess shedded. This amount of weight loss can dramatically change someone’s life and lead to a much healthier, fulfilled life.

Success rates post-bariatric surgery also come down to the patient's commitment to the lifestyle changes that will need to take place to keep the weight off. These changes will be planned with the medical team pre-surgery so you understand what changes you’re going to have to make in the future. Luckily, the medical team will be in contact post-surgery to provide any support you might need on your journey and to squash any worries you might have. But post-surgery if you stick to your new lifestyle plan, you can expect a complete change in appearance and an overall increase in general mood.

Although it’s natural to initially worry about the standards you will receive when undergoing surgery in a different country, in Latvia you do not need to worry.

Why is Sleeve Gastrectomy in Latvia So Popular?

Sleeve gastrectomy has become the most popular weight loss surgery in recent years. This is due to the low invasiveness and high efficiency of the surgery dropping staggering amounts of excess weight off the patient. Previous forms of bariatric surgery such as gastric band or gastric bypass surgery are still popular among clinics across the world, but do not compare to the popularity of the gastric sleeve. At our clinic, we do not offer gastric band surgery due to its invasiveness and tend to recommend patients to have a sleeve gastrectomy instead, as it is one of the most effective forms of bariatric surgery. Since weight loss surgery in Latvia has been rising in popularity year after year, it’s natural for the amount of Latvian gastric sleeve surgeries to increase too. 

Weight Loss Surgery Concerns

Negative reviews regarding weight loss surgeries in other countries can sometimes raise concerns and doubts about pursuing medical tourism. However, In contrast to the reported adverse outcomes associated with the Turkish gastric band, Latvia offers a safer option with less invasive types of surgeries that pose fewer risks. For example, our mini gastric bypass in Latvia is performed using advanced techniques and technology, ensuring the best possible outcomes for our patients.
