Take Control of Your Weight
For patients seeking significant weight loss with a shorter surgical time, Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB), also known as One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB), offers a highly effective alternative to traditional gastric bypass.
At our Tijuana surgical center, mini gastric bypass is performed with a structured safety protocol and comprehensive patient support.
What Is Mini Gastric Bypass?
Mini gastric bypass reduces the size of the stomach by approximately 70–75% and reroutes a portion of the small intestine.
The procedure works through two mechanisms:
- Restriction
A long, narrow stomach pouch is created to limit food intake.
- Mild Malabsorption
The small intestine is rerouted, reducing the number of calories and nutrients absorbed.
- Hormonal Changes
The procedure reduces hunger hormones and improves insulin sensitivity, helping control appetite and blood sugar levels.
Unlike gastric bypass, the intestines are not rerouted. This makes the procedure technically simpler while still delivering substantial, long-term weight reduction.
What To Expect From Mini Gastric Bypass?
Our specialists here at Lighter Dream Bariatric Services can perform gastric sleeve operations on patients in 45 minutes or so. This type of bariatric surgery, as weight-loss surgeries are collectively called, is one of the quickest to do. And results can already be noticed in just a couple of weeks.
