What you need to know about Gastric Plication in Istanbul

Gastric Plication is an innovative weight-loss surgery primarily aimed at reducing stomach size to limit food intake to about 3 ounces (approximately 70% of your stomach is reduced). This procedure is also known as gastric imbrication or laparoscopic greater curvature plication (LGCP). In Istanbul, it's performed under a team of experts well-versed in the intricacies of bariatric procedures. Gastric Plication doesn't involve removing any part of the stomach or placing foreign objects, such as gastric bands, in the body. This factor makes it an appealing option for individuals seeking less invasive modes of bariatric surgery.

Before the procedure, patients must undergo a thorough medical evaluation to ensure their eligibility. This includes assessing body mass index (BMI), existing medical conditions, and previous surgical history. Also, mental health evaluation is part of the pre-procedure protocol in Istanbul. Gastric Plication typically takes approximately one to two hours and involves a hospital stay of only a few days. Post-surgical follow-ups and dietetic supervision are vital to ensure a stable, safe weight loss journey. These follow-ups also monitor the individual's psychological adaptations post-surgery.

What's the Recovery Time for Gastric Plication Procedures in Istanbul?

The process of recovery after a gastric plication procedure can vary widely, depending largely on an individual's overall health, age, and fidelity to post-procedure dietary modifications and physical activity guidelines. Generally speaking, many individuals find that they are able to return to their daily routines within about a week after surgery. That said, a full recovery - which involves complete healing post-surgery - is typically a matter of two to three weeks. 

What's critical to understand here is, that the aforementioned recovery timeline majorly pertains to the physical aspect of recuperation after the operation. Adjusting to the subsequent diet-related and lifestyle shifts, which are key to ensuring long-term successful weight loss, might entail a somewhat extended timeframe. In places like Istanbul, patients have access to dietitians and counsellors who are trained to guide them during this important transition phase. These professionals offer insightful advice on making nutritious food choices, practising portion control, and developing healthy lifestyle habits, all of which are integral to retaining the weight loss achieved from the surgical procedure.

What's the Success Rate of Gastric Plication Procedures in Istanbul?

The success rate of gastric plication in Istanbul appears to be promising with a substantial number of patients noticing significant weight loss and a remarkable reduction in obesity-associated health conditions. Nevertheless, it's important to remember that this surgical intervention isn't an absolute cure or quick solution for obesity, but rather an effective tool that when paired with commitment to lifestyle modifications, could lead to enduring weight loss and improved quality of life.

Patients who keep up with suggested diet and exercise regimens, regularly attend follow-ups, and accommodate other relevant lifestyle changes are known to experience significant weight reduction and improvement in their health. However, like with any procedure, there can be instances of less-than-ideal outcomes with certain patients not achieving their weight loss targets or the possibility of weight regain over time.
