- The Only Guide You’ll Ever Need
Gastric Sleeve
Gastric sleeve, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is one of the most popular bariatric procedures for long-term weight loss. In this surgery, about 75–80% of the stomach is removed, leaving a narrow, tube-like sleeve. This significantly reduces the stomach’s capacity, so patients feel full after eating much smaller portions. The procedure also lowers levels of hunger hormones like ghrelin, helping to reduce appetite and support consistent weight loss over time.
The surgery is performed laparoscopically under general anesthesia and usually takes about 1–2 hours. Most patients stay in the hospital for 1–2 days and can return to normal activities within a couple of weeks. A structured diet and exercise program is essential after surgery to maximize results and maintain weight loss. Gastric sleeve also improves obesity-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and type 2 diabetes, offering both cosmetic and medical benefits.

What is Rhinoplasty ?
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the nose for aesthetic enhancement or functional improvement. It can address concerns like:
A dorsal hump
Drooping or bulbous nasal tip
Crooked bridge
Overall facial imbalance
In many cases, rhinoplasty is also performed to improve nasal breathing, particularly when combined with correction of a deviated septum.
At our clinic, board-certified surgeons take a personalized, detail-oriented approach, analyzing each patient’s facial structure to deliver natural-looking and harmonious results.
Rhinoplasty Process
1. Consultation
Detailed facial and nasal analysis
Discussion of aesthetic goals and functional concerns
Customized surgical plan tailored to your features
2. Surgical Procedure
General anesthesia is typically used
Hidden incisions (inside the nostrils) minimize visible scarring
The nose is reshaped (tip refined, hump reduced, bridge straightened, etc.)
If needed, internal corrections like a septoplasty are performed to enhance breathing
3. Recovery
Surgery duration: 2–3 hours
Outpatient procedure: most patients go home the same day
Swelling and bruising peak in the first week and subside within 1–2 weeks
External splint worn for about a week
Return to light activities and office work: typically within 7–10 days
Final results: refined nasal shape settles within 12 months
