We do this procedure in JJ Aesthetics through the application of modern surgical procedures, stringent safety measures and individualized treatment planning.

What Is Duodenal Switch Surgery?

Duodenal Switch Surgery is an integrative restrictive and malabsorptive weight loss. It reduces the size of the stomach and diversion of a section of the small intestine as a way of greatly restricting the calorie and nutrient intakes. This is the reason it is one of the best bariatric surgeries today with this being its dual mechanism. The surgery is made up of two major parts:

Sleeve Gastectomy: 

A significant part of the stomach is excised resulting in a small tube shaped structure that restricts the amount of food.

Intestinal Bypass: 

The restructuring of the small intestine is done in such a manner that it enhances the absorption of calories yet the proteins and other required nutrients are digested adequately through medical supervision.

This combination will guarantee quick weight loss, enhancement of insulin sensitivity, and the long-term regulation of hunger hormones.
