Bariatric Surgery
For those who have not been able to achieve significant weight loss through diet modifications and exercise programs alone, bariatric surgery can help achieve a healthier body weight. There are a number of surgical options available to treat obesity, each one with its advantages and disadvantages. In general, bariatric surgery is successful in producing (often substantial) weight loss, but must be considered surgical risk (including mortality) and side effects before taking the decision to continue with this treatment option. In general, these procedures can be performed safely.
