Post-Surgery Life
Recovery Period
The recovery period after surgery varies from person to person. Two hours after you arrive in your room after the surgery, you will get up and start walking. You will be discharged from the hospital in a short time and you will be able to return to your normal life.
When you start your new diet, you will need some time and patience. You will rediscover your body. You can choose foods that make you feel good. We will be there for you when you need it.
Postoperative Support
Obesity treatment does not end with surgery. It actually starts with the surgery. As Dr. Özgün Akgül and his team, we will continue our face-to-face and online meetings after bariatric surgery. In these interviews, diet, exercise program, blood tests and body analyzes will be evaluated. A long-term follow-up program awaits you. In addition, special suggestions and conversations will take place in the support groups, and you will be able to share your own experiences.
Nutrition
Postoperative patients may need to take vitamin and protein supplements due to rapid weight loss and diet changes. We recommend vitamin support especially during the first six months. We can eliminate the deficiencies by checking the vitamin levels with blood measurements made at regular check-ups.
Exercise
Exercise is one of the most important way of effective weight loss. We all know this. Most people with obesity have a lack of fitness due to excess weight and inactivity. Our aim is to provide you with a better quality and comfortable life. Endurance and flexibility are the main goals in exercise programs. Our only goal in the treatment program is not to lose weight, but to live without the need for care and lose enough weight. Our team is here to help. This is your life. This is your choice.
