The sleeve gastrectomy, also known as the gastric sleeve, reduces the size of the stomach by around 80%. This means you feel full more quickly (increased satiety) and you experience a decrease in appetite. The procedure is usually performed laparoscopically and takes between 60 and 75 minutes to complete. This procedure has shorter operating times, lower complication rate and faster recovery times compared to other bariatric procedures.
