Can a robot really perform surgery? NO! Robotics is an incredible tool, but doctors run it!
The great advantage of robotic surgery is the high definition three-dimensional vision, a delicate procedure, which allows the doctor to perform the surgery while sitting, with extraordinary vision and precise movements. High technology makes the operation much safer. The patient has a quick and comfortable recovery and is therefore able to return to their routine more easily. According to the bariatric doctor,
DR. GUILHERMINO NOGUEIRA
, specialist in robotic surgery, the treatment of obesity is made up of two innovative pillars: human and individualized assistance and the best existing technology to bring safety and efficiency to the procedures. The challenge of simplicity is how professionals conduct the weight loss process, making surgery a miracle, as well as treating people in an automated way.

HOW BARIATRIC SURGERY IS DONE
Corrects hormonal imbalances. It alters the stomach and intestines, thus improving metabolism, controlling hunger and providing a feeling of satiety. This is a metabolic surgery, in which the patient undergoes a change in the digestive system, which promotes changes in the production of gastrointestinal hormones, which are directly involved in the control of hunger, satiety and energy expenditure. They have a connection between the gastrointestinal tract and the brain nuclei. Once these anatomical changes have been made, they directly affect the hormonal relationship and, if altered, the message at the brain level is modified, causing a decrease in hunger and an improvement in metabolism. A physiological restriction is carried out. When food enters the small stomach and passes more quickly into the intestine, it touches an area of the intestine, where hormones are produced which are messengers of the brain and modify the sensation of hunger and satiety. Therefore, the patient no longer has the desire to binge.
MYTHS ABOUT BARIATRIC SURGERY
Bariatric surgery doesn’t work because the stomach becomes small, much less because it stops absorbing nutrients. There are still many doubts about obesity and bariatric surgery. Some of these “myths” took science thirty years to discover. For decades, medicine has treated obese patients as if they were greedy and lazy! Doctors recommended reducing food intake and exercising for treatment. But in 2013 medicine managed to understand that obesity is actually a DISEASE!
People who become obese have a hormonal imbalance!!!
Many things have changed in the last ten years, including bariatric surgery. In the past, it was considered a drastic solution for extremely overweight people. Then the stomach was reduced to prevent the absorption of what he ate and limit the amount of food. But now with the advanced medical knowledge about hormones and the fact that obesity is a disease, the bariatric surgical procedure has become much more physiological and accessible to treat patients suffering from this disease.
