Gastric Sleeve for obese teens

Teens are generally not recommended for any type of bariatric surgeries because of the popular notion that they can manage and reduce their weight by non-surgical methods and they might also not be mentally prepared. But certain teens cannot undergo weight loss by non-surgical methods. So how does a teen-aged individual qualify to undergo bariatric surgery?

The teens need to be a minimum of 14 years old and have to have a height of an adult with a minimum of 45 kg above the recommended weight for his or her height. The other mandatory factors are, the teen should also suffer from co-morbid conditions like diabetes, sleep apnea, heart-related problems, etc. The factor the surgeon determines is the readiness of the teen to undergo surgery and probably a sense of need from the teen to maintain proper health and diet after the weight loss surgery. So if all these factors are satisfied a teen can also undergo a weight loss surgery without any hassles. Support and readiness of the parents of the teens are also very important factors that will be considered.
