Got it done 8 months ago and so far I’m down 110 pounds. Still losing weight but after a point it gets harder to lose more fat. I’m watching what I eat because I can eat whatever I want again. I don’t want to gain weight no more! It is not only a surgery, effects should last forever in your lifestyle.
Özgün Akgül is the best general surgeon I have ever met. I had surgery after meeting him for a long time. It has a wonderful clinic and staff in Izmir. I was amazed by her patience. I am absolutely satisfied.
