Procedures
Bariatric surgery in Guadalajara
Gastric Balloon
It consists of temporarily placing an inflatable balloon in the stomach using an endoscopy. Once inflated, the balloon takes up space in the stomach, limiting the amount of food that can be consumed and generating a feeling of satiety.
Gastric Sleeve
It is a surgical procedure in which the size of the stomach is reduced by removing approximately 80% of it. This approach helps limit the amount of food that can be consumed.
Gastric Bypass
It reduces the size of the stomach and bypasses part of the small intestine. In addition to facilitating weight loss, it may also have beneficial effects on obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes.
Intestinal bipartition
It involves dividing the small intestine and creating two tubes. This reduces the absorption of calories and nutrients, contributing significantly to weight loss.

Frequently Asked Questions about Bariatric Surgery
Here we solve the most common ones
Take the next step with confidence
Generally, individuals with a body mass index (BMI) above 30, or above 35 with associated medical conditions, are considered candidates. Dr. Aceves will evaluate your specific case to determine the best option for you.
Both are safe and effective weight-loss techniques. Gastric sleeve only reduces the size of the stomach, while gastric bypass, in addition to reducing the size of the stomach, also bypasses the intestine. The choice depends on your individual case.
Like any surgical procedure, there are risks. However, Dr. Aceves' experience and comprehensive approach minimize these risks and promote a successful recovery.
Each case is different, but on average, patients can lose between 60% and 100% of their excess weight in the first 12 to 18 months, as long as they follow medical instructions and maintain healthy habits.
Recovery varies depending on the type of procedure, but you can generally return to your normal activities within a week after surgery. Your medical team will be with you every step of the way.
Of course! We treat national and international patients in Guadalajara, Jalisco. Your initial evaluation is coordinated virtually with the doctor and the multidisciplinary team. And don't worry, we monitor your progress after surgery virtually at all times.
It depends on the type of surgery and your progress. Generally, you can return to light work within a couple of days. Physical exercise is resumed gradually, with brisk walking starting in the first few days, according to specific instructions from your medical team.
After surgery, you'll follow a progressive diet that begins with liquids and progresses to solid foods. We'll teach you how to maintain a balanced, portioned, and protein-rich diet, always with the guidance of a nutritionist.
It is a very effective tool, but it's not magic. To maintain your results, it's key to commit to your health: eat well, exercise, and get regular checkups.
Some health insurance plans may cover it, depending on the policy and whether it's considered medically necessary. It's recommended that you review your coverage and consult directly with your insurer or Dr. Aceves' team.
We have commercial alliances with companies that offer financing for your surgery, with plans from 3 to 24 months.
Surgery can be performed on patients from adolescents to those over 70 years of age, always with an assessment of your individual case by the doctor and the multidisciplinary team to determine the best option for you.
