These patient photographs and stories were published by Renew Bariatrics and attributed there to Dr. Héctor Pérez. Each entry identifies the procedure and reported follow-up information. The collection includes gastric sleeve and gastric bypass experiences.
These are selected individual experiences, not a complete outcomes registry. Weight changes are reported by the source, photo dates are not independently verified, and results vary. The gallery does not show expected outcomes from TORe, ESG or revision of a previous sleeve.
Gastric sleeve: published before-and-after photographs
The following cards identify Dr. Pérez as the surgeon. Follow-up intervals describe what Renew reports; they are not new measurements taken for this website.
Melissa S.
Reported weight: 276 lb before treatment and 155 lb at the reported follow-up.
Lindsay S.
Reported weight: 210 lb before treatment and 158 lb at the reported follow-up.
Frances G.
Reported weight: 288 lb before treatment and 170 lb at the reported follow-up.
Emily W.
The source reports the amount lost but does not give both starting and follow-up weights.
Jason W.
Reported weight: 383 lb before treatment and 255 lb at the reported follow-up.
Eric M.
Reported weight: 350 lb before treatment and 248 lb at the reported follow-up.
Catherine B.
Reported weight: 196 lb before treatment and 140 lb at the reported follow-up.
Jessica M.: a sleeve story with a dated operation
Renew’s published story identifies a February 2018 gastric sleeve with Dr. Pérez and reports a change from 226 to 161 lb. The narrative describes an almost-eight-month point in her recovery, but it does not establish the precise capture date of each photograph.
The story also discusses learning about food choices and the possibility of weight regain. That context matters: a photograph records one point in a longer course of care. Read the original account alongside the gastric sleeve guide.
Autumn: a published after photograph
This is a single after photograph, not a paired before-and-after image. Renew attributes Autumn’s sleeve surgery to Dr. Pérez and reports a change from 384 to 211 lb. The source does not state a follow-up interval, so the image should not be used as a one-year or long-term outcome.
Heriberto H.: gastric bypass
Renew’s card identifies gastric bypass with Dr. Pérez and reports a change from 325 to 190 lb at one year. It does not specify the bypass technique or whether the procedure followed another operation. We therefore describe it only as a gastric bypass experience.
How to put these photographs in context
A visible change cannot tell you whether a particular procedure is right for you. It also does not show the whole recovery, nutrition requirements, medication use or complications. Before comparing your goals with another person’s result, ask which procedure they had, what their starting weight was and when the result was recorded.
For research results, start with how to interpret weight-loss measures and the evidence library. For the experience of care, read the selected reviews naming Dr. Pérez.
