The Gastric Bypass Process
Gastric bypass surgery (also known as Roux-en-Y) is one of the most successful bariatric surgery procedures. It works by dividing the stomach into two separate pouches—an upper pouch and a lower pouch. The smaller pouch is then connected to the lower portion of the small intestine. Finally, the small intestine is rerouted to connect to both pouches.
Minimally Invasive Gastric Bypass Surgery Shorter Recovery, Less Discomfort
The Tijuana Bariatrics network of physicians offers laparoscopic surgery to perform bariatric surgery through several tiny incisions instead of one large single incision, resulting in less discomfort, minimized scarring, and a shorter recovery.
These laparoscopic tools include a special camera so that the bariatric surgeon can clearly view the treatment area on a monitor while resizing the stomach, rerouting the intestines, and suturing the tissue.
Call Tijuana Bariatrics in Tijuana, Mexico, to request your free consultation and learn more about how you can lose weight through this laparoscopic procedure.

View On GoogleWhat Kind of Results Can I Expect?
Before undergoing weight loss surgery, you also need to be committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. As with every type of weight loss surgery coordinated by Tijuana Bariatrics, gastric bypass surgery only gives you the tools to lose weight; it is up to you to dedicate yourself to leading a healthier life. After the initial recovery period and a commitment to healthy lifestyle changes, patients can expect to achieve lasting, positive results, including:
Weight Loss in the First Year
With this comprehensive weight-loss approach, most patients will experience a substantial reduction in excess body weight within the first six months of their weight loss surgery.* After about a year, most patients who follow their post-surgical instructions, including their diet and exercise recommendations, can achieve their goal weight.*
Keeping the Weight Off
During the first year or two after your bariatric surgery, diet and exercise changes often come easily. With all the rapid weight loss, patients are often excited about staying healthy by eating right and being active. Once weight loss goals are reached, however, it may be tempting to be less diligent about sticking with healthy diet and exercise habits. To maintain a healthy weight, patients should continue to exercise, keep snacking to a minimum, eat small portions, and have a strong support system that encourages good habits.
Ongoing Health Benefits
The list of direct and indirect health benefits connected to significant weight loss is long and impressive. Obesity-related conditions that may be resolved after bariatric surgery include sleep apnea, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. Being more active and fit can lead to a better social life, stronger interpersonal relationships, and even improved job performance. Given all the physical and social advantages gastric bypass patients enjoy, it should be no surprise that many of them also report improved mental health and self-esteem.*
More Benefits of Gastric Bypass Surgery
Gastric bypass surgery is one of the most common forms of bariatric surgery performed in Tijuana and the rest of the world because of its safety, efficacy, and impressive success rate. Here are more reasons why this laparoscopic procedure remains a popular choice for patients who need to lose weight:
Hypertension Relief
Essential hypertension is relieved in over 70 percent of patients and medication requirements are greatly reduced.
Hyperlipidemia Reduction
Hyperlipidemia is corrected in over 70 percent of patients.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Relief
Obstructive sleep apnea can usually be improved with weight loss. As a result, bariatric surgery can relieve OSA and reduce symptoms like snoring.
Diabetes Reduction
Type 2 diabetes may be reduced in some patients, usually leading to normal blood sugar levels without medication, sometimes within days of surgery.
Life Improvements
Through Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, your entire quality of life will improve. Many patients see a reduction in lower back and joint pain, venous thromboembolic disease, gastroesophageal reflux, and have more energy to do the things they enjoy.

FAQ
Why is the stomach resized?
In the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedure, the resizing of your stomach and rerouting to your small intestine is designed to limit your food consumption and caloric absorption. The smaller stomach pouch limits the amount of food you can consume before feeling full.
How long does recovery take?
Typically, it takes about three to five weeks to fully recover from Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
Is a gastric bypass safe?
For most patients, yes. Gastric bypass can produce rapid weight loss with minimal side effects, and less than two percent of patients experience complications from surgery.
Why should I travel to Mexico for weight loss surgery?
When you travel to Mexico for weight loss surgery, you can get world-class care at an affordable cost. As part of the cost of your package, Tijuana Bariatrics will oversee all aspects of your accommodations and on-ground travel arrangements. You will stay at the beautiful Marriott Hotel in Tijuana which is accustomed to catering to the needs of international travelers. The locations of both the hotel and the hospital are in prosperous neighborhoods that are known for their peacefulness and safety.
What's the difference between gastric sleeve and gastric bypass?
Both gastric sleeve and gastric bypass create a smaller stomach pouch to restrict the amount of food you are able to consume. However, in a gastric sleeve, there is no rerouting of the small intestine. While both gastric sleeve and gastric bypass are effective bariatric surgeries, gastric sleeve surgery only restricts the amount of food you consume, not the caloric absorption from the shortened small intestine.
