Bariatric surgery has emerged as a highly effective intervention for achieving remission of Type 2 diabetes in individuals with obesity. Surgical procedures such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and adjustable gastric banding induce substantial weight loss and trigger metabolic changes that improve insulin sensitivity, beta-cell function, and glycemic control. Evidence demonstrates that selected patients can achieve partial or complete diabetes remission, reducing the need for pharmacotherapy and lowering the risk of diabetes-related complications. Optimal outcomes depend on careful patient selection, multidisciplinary care, and ongoing lifestyle and nutritional support. By integrating bariatric surgery into comprehensive diabetes management, healthcare providers can offer a transformative approach that improves metabolic health, enhances quality of life, and provides long-term clinical benefits.
