Can I receive a pro-active VSG with a BMI of only 27? (Photo)

Hello, I hope you are well. A BMI of 27 would not make you eligible for bariatric surgery. However, there are other options available for you like the gastric balloon. Additionally, my recommendation is to get evaluated by a bariatric team, considering your difficulty losing weight could have a medical cause.

No, you cannot have “Prophylactic Surgery”!
There is no such a thing and you can’t ask that, because it’s not the standard of practice in USA.
That being said, you can ask to have the Surgery to help you lose some weight (even with low BMI). 
Obviously with proper diet and active lifestyle, not only you will lose some weight, but also will maintain it and prevent obesity and/ or its complications in the future.

Yes sleeve in low bmi can be done, as long as you understand the risks, and understand the that you would pay out of pocket. Lots of great surgeons in Tijuana MX and elsewhere internationally, the issue is that of follow up, which will be very important after any operation
