Products and services

• Gastric Sleeve (Manga Gástrica) Surgical procedure that reduces stomach size by approximately 80% using endostaplers, giving the organ a sleeve or tube appearance and decreasing patient appetite. Performed laparoscopically under general anesthesia for adult patients with obesity.
• Gastric Bypass Weight loss surgical procedure creating a small stomach sac connected to the small intestine using endostaplers, performed laparoscopically under general anesthesia for patients with severe obesity and associated metabolic disease.
• Mini Bypass Less invasive bariatric surgery similar to gastric bypass that sections and staples the stomach and connects it directly to the intestine, without further intestinal connection. Performed laparoscopically.
• Gastric Corset (Gastroplication) Innovative mini surgery that folds the stomach on itself to reduce volume by approximately 70%, providing an effect similar to gastric sleeve without cutting or stapling stomach tissue. The practice claims 12+ years of accumulated experience with thousands of patients in the Americas.
• Metabolic Corset

Quantifiable outcome

• 70%–80% of patients achieve loss of at least 60% of excess weight; average loss 65%–90% of excess weight

Broad incumbents

• Galenia Hospital (Cancún): Private hospital in Cancún with a bariatric/metabolic surgery program serving international medical tourists. Comparable as a Mexican private facility running bariatric programs for foreign patients, though broader in scope than Innovare's bariatric-only focus.
• Hospital Ángeles (Mexico): Largest private hospital network in Mexico, offering bariatric and metabolic surgery among a broad specialty portfolio. Comparable as a larger incumbent providing bariatric surgery services in Mexico, though not specializing in bariatrics the way Innovare does.

Direct peers

• Mexico Bariatric Center: U.S.-marketed bariatric surgery facilitator and Tijuana-based clinic network offering gastric sleeve, bypass, and mini bypass to American patients. Directly comparable as a Mexican bariatric practice/facilitator competing for the same cross-border self-pay patient segment.
• Baja Surgery Center: Tijuana-based private bariatric practice offering gastric sleeve, bypass, and revision procedures primarily to U.S. medical tourists with bundled pricing. Comparable peer competing in the same Mexican medical-tourism bariatric segment as Innovare.
• Obesity Control Center: Tijuana-based bariatric clinic run by Dr. Ariel Ortiz, offering gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and revision surgery, with strong U.S. patient flow. Directly comparable as a Mexican private bariatric practice built around a named surgeon brand targeting medical tourists.
• Endobariatric Solutions (Dr. Alvarez): Mexico-based bariatric surgery practice in Tijuana founded by Dr. Alvarez, offering gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, mini bypass, and duodenal switch to primarily U.S. medical tourists. Directly comparable to Innovare as a Mexican bariatric practice targeting cross-border self-pay patients with a single lead-surgeon brand.

Others

• BariClip (creator/sponsor): Device company behind the silicone-coated titanium Bariclip that Innovare was the first center in the Western Hemisphere certified to apply. Comparable as the upstream technology provider enabling one of Innovare's differentiated offerings.

Regional players

• Cirugía Plástica Dr. Raúl López (and similar Guadalajara cosmetic/bariatric centers): Network of Mexican private practices combining bariatric surgery with post-weight-loss cosmetic procedures in Guadalajara and other regional hubs. Comparable regional peer in the same metropolitan area as Innovare offering overlapping bariatric services.
• Hospital de Especialidades San Fernando: Panama-based private hospital that runs a well-known bariatric/metabolic surgery program catering to international patients. Comparable to Innovare as a Latin American private facility competing in medical tourism for weight-loss surgery, though operating in a different geography.

Emerging players

• Allurion (Allurion Technologies): U.S.-based medical device company behind the Allurion ingestible gastric balloon that Innovare is certified to administer. Comparable as an adjacent/partner company whose product Innovare deploys, and a thematic peer in non-surgical weight-loss technology.
