Some of the many benefits you can experience with robotic surgery for weight loss at Advanced Surgeons include:
Weight loss surgery or bariatric surgery can give you a better overall quality of life and make long-term healthy weight management easier.
To find out if you’re a candidate for robotic surgery at Advanced Surgeons, your experienced provider discusses your medical history, symptoms you may have, your lifestyle, and your preferences. They check your weight, blood pressure, and other vital signs and complete a comprehensive physical exam.
Your weight loss specialist recommends you undergo blood tests and sometimes heart function tests, X-rays, or other diagnostic tests to detect or rule out additional health problems.
Right before robotic surgery, you receive general anesthesia to help you fall asleep and avoid pain. Your surgeon sits at a computer console and uses interactive robotic arms to perform your surgery. They use magnified, 3D imagery as guidance for maximum precision and accuracy while altering or repairing tissues inside of your body.
After robotic surgery, it’s important to follow all of your post-surgery instructions. Get plenty of rest, take medications and dietary supplements as directed, and follow a special diet during and after the healing process.
Attend follow-up visits with Advanced Surgeons and support groups as needed for advice about weight loss after surgery.
