Weight Loss Surgery in Las Vegas for Healthy Life
More than one-third of American adults are obese.[6]
-CDC
As obesity cases rise, the need to manage it also increases, thus calling out for more surgical procedures. The weight-loss surgeries are also known as bariatric surgery. In short, it refers to the changes made to the digestive system leading to weight reduction.[7]

Now, let's address some of your concerns regarding weight loss drugs in the market!
GLP-1 Agonist-Based Weight Loss Drugs
GLP-1 agonists are a type of medication that mimic the action of a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).[8] GLP-1 is a hormone that is produced in the intestines in response to food intake.[9]
It has an important function in controlling blood sugar levels and hunger.[10] Certain drugs, such as Wegovy, were designed and approved, especially for weight loss.[11] Meanwhile, other GLP-1 agonists, such as Ozempic, are intended to treat type 2 diabetes.[12]
GLP-1 Agonists in the Market
These drugs are administered through injections and include:[13] [14]
- semaglutide, known as Wegovy
- dulaglutide, known as Trulicity
- lixisenatide, known as Lixumia
- liraglutide, known as Saxenda
- exenatide, known as Bydureon & Byetta
- naltrexone-bupropion, known as Contrave
- orlistat, known as Alli, Xenical
- phentermine-topiramate, known as Qsymia
Now, let’s see the potential risks involved with them!
Potential Risks Involved With GLP-1 Agonists
The FDA warns that ‘there are no approved generic versions’ of medications like Ozempic in the United States.[15]
The FDA does not officially approve the medicine to treat obesity in the United States. But it is occasionally prescribed off-label for this purpose.[16]
The medicine has certain potential negative effects, the most serious of which is stomach discomfort. Let’s explore some more potential risks associated with GLP-1 agonists below:
Gastrointestinal side effects
Side effects of GLP-1 agonists that affect the gastrointestinal tract include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain.[17]
Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
GLP-1 agonists can drop blood sugar levels, particularly when combined with other diabetes medications. Patients must regularly monitor their blood sugar levels and be aware of the indicators of hypoglycemia.[18]
Pancreatitis
There have been instances of pancreatitis (pancreatic inflammation) linked to using GLP-1 agonists.[19]
Weight Loss Surgery Vs. GLP-1 Agonists
Injection Site Reactions
GLP-1 agonists are normally provided via injection. Some people may develop injection site responses such as redness, edema, or pain.
Kidney Function
Acute kidney injury has been linked to the use of GLP-1 agonists, particularly in those who already have kidney issues.[20]
Hypersensitivity reactions
Although uncommon, allergic reactions to GLP-1 agonists can occur. Skin rash, itching, and trouble breathing are all possible symptoms.[21] Let’s take a look at the many differences between GLP-1 agonists and weight loss surgery!
Weight Loss Surgery vs. Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) Agonists
Let’s see why weight loss surgery is more beneficial for you than Glucan-like peptide (GLP-1) agonists:
Reason | Weight Loss Surgery | GLP-1 |
Significant weight loss | 70% of excess body weight is lost[22] | 15% of your body weight is lost[23] |
Long-term success | Provides more durable & sustained weight loss results | You will regain weight after you stop taking weight loss medication[24] |
Rapid & significant weight loss | Surgical procedures like gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy can lead to rapid weight loss.[25] | Weight loss isn’t rapid with weight loss drugs and depends on your diet |
Resolution of other diseases | Significant improvement in obesity-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes, hypertension & sleep apnea.[26] [27] | Slow improvement in obesity-related health conditions |
Customized approaches | Surgeons can tailor procedures according to your specific needs & health status | Doctors can prescribe medication according to your diet & needs |
Multiple monetary deductions | Weight loss surgery requires a one-time investment | Weight loss drugs that cost upto $1000 require multiple monetary deductions[28] |
Now, let's explore the different types of weight loss surgeries available in Las Vegas!
Types of WLS
Widely used three main types of WLS procedures are:[29]
Gastric Sleeve focuses on removing about 80% of the stomach. Firstly, the portion of the stomach that produces most of the “hunger hormone” is removed.
Finally, leaving behind a banana-shaped and sized stomach. This process takes less than an hour and is safe to perform on high-risk patients (with medical conditions).
Rewards
- Shorter surgery time
- Effective weight loss procedure
- First choice for severely obese patients
Risks
- Non-reversible
- Less metabolic impact on the body
- It may cause acid reflux or heartburn
The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the oldest procedure performed in 50 years. It is done laparoscopically with small incisions to create a little stomach pouch.
Later, it attaches it to the small intestine so that the food bypasses some part of the digestive tract. Sometimes, after the surgery, you may feel sick after eating (especially sweets) and drinking, which is known as dumping syndrome.
Rewards
- Reliable and standardized
- Long-lasting weight loss outcome
- Effective for the disappearance of obesity-related problems
Risks
- Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
- Chances of minor bowel complications
- More technically complex procedures than others
A silicone-made adjustable gastric band (AGB) is placed around the top portion of the stomach. The purpose is to limit the amount of food intake.
Rewards
- The lowest rate of early complications
- Minimal risk for vitamin & mineral deficiencies
- Same day return home after surgery of 1/2 hour
Risks
- It can lead to swallowing problems
- Demands foreign implant inside the body
- Comparatively slow and less weight loss
Other Drawbacks
- It might require multiple office visits for band adjustments
- The band slippage can cause damage to the stomach (erosion)
Success Rate
The studies have reported that the overall success rate of sleeve gastrectomy was 96.1% after one year.[30] In addition, it has been found that LSG offers several advantages.
It has been proved to be safe and highly effective in patients with a BMI lower than 40 kg/m².
