Bariatric surgery is a significant and increasingly performed procedure in India aimed at addressing obesity and its related health issues, with a marked rise in cases over the last decade. Various types of surgeries, like sleeve gastrectomy and roux-en-y gastric bypass, can lead to substantial weight loss and resolution of comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes and hypertension. The procedure is not considered cosmetic, and while weight regain can occur, the surgery presents a promising solution to improve health outcomes related to obesity.
