Bariatric surgery is an umbrella term that includes several types of weight-loss surgeries that help you lose weight significantly and help in getting rid of obesity-related health problems. Surgery of this type is usually resorted to when the more straightforward methods, such as diet and exercise, become ineffective or don't produce the desired results. Bariatric procedures primarily function by limiting food intake or modifying the digestive tract to prevent fat absorption.

There are several types of weight loss surgeries, and each surgery causes weight loss in its way. Some of the standard mechanisms through which bariatric procedures induce weight loss include:
A bariatric procedure aims to reduce food intake at a single time by reducing the size of the stomach. The stomach is usually reduced to one-third of its standard size, and this is achieved with the help of endo staplers. The feeling of fullness after eating a small meal leads to fewer calories being consumed, which leads to weight loss.
In some bariatric surgeries, the intestines or bowel are rerouted. As a result, there is minimal fat absorption into the body, leading to weight loss.
Bariatric surgery can affect the release of hormones that regulate appetite, sugar metabolism, and carbohydrate metabolism. For example, a sleeve gastrectomy reduces the production of hunger-stimulating hormone ghrelin. As a result, appetite is suppressed. Specific bariatric procedures alter the output of various gut hormones, which helps to maintain better sugar levels, resulting in a cure for diabetes.
Several factors determine whether you qualify for bariatric surgery. These include:
Bariatric surgery is the most reliable long-term solution for weight loss, while also transforming overall health, lifestyle, and emotional well-being in profound and lasting ways.

In short, liposuction is not a weight loss tool. It is a surgical technique that will remove fat beneath the skin of troubled areas, especially the abdomen or belly area. What liposuction will never do is make you lose weight, as it is a body contouring surgery that produces minimal weight loss. The only thing that makes a lasting difference in body weight is bariatric surgery.
If you are adherent to post-surgery lifestyle changes, eat well (even after the recommended diet stages), and exercise reasonably regularly, the chances of weight regain are almost negligible. Regular follow-up with healthcare providers, keeping yourself motivated, and following the recommendations are ways to prevent weight restoration.
You must be very careful with alcohol consumption following bariatric surgery. Once you are a few months post bariatric surgery, then you can consume alcohol, but in restricted quantities. Excessive consumption can lead to nutritional deficiencies and weight gain. You must consult your surgeon, who is the best person to guide you regarding the intake of alcohol.
Bariatric surgery can dramatically have a positive impact on your sexual life. Reduced obesity levels and hormonal changes can improve libido or sexual desire. Bariatric surgery improves sexual performance by reducing weight and increasing confidence levels.
