Bariatric surgery is performed on stomach and small intestine. Excess fat is not removed in this method. Majority of the obese individuals fail to reduce weight by diet restriction and regular exercise. Even if they lose initially, weight is regained due to the effect of fat set point. These are benefited from bariatric surgery. Bariatric surgery is very safe and effective tool for permanent weight loss.
