ESG is a procedure performed endoscopically by a gastroenterologist or surgeon that uses a small suturing device and camera to reduce the size of the stomach from the inside.
BOOK A CONSULTATIONEndoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is a minimally invasive weight-loss procedure designed to help patients achieve significant weight loss without the need for traditional surgery. During ESG, a flexible tube (endoscope) is inserted through the mouth, and sutures are used to reduce the size of the stomach, creating a sleeve-shaped pouch. This limits food intake, reduces hunger, and promotes gradual, sustainable weight loss.
The procedure is performed under sedation and typically takes 1-2 hours, with no incisions needed. ESG is a great option for individuals who are looking for a more aggressive weight-loss method but may not qualify for, or prefer not to undergo, traditional weight-loss surgery.
ESG is performed using an endoscope, a thin flexible tube inserted through the mouth to place sutures in the stomach, reducing its size. The procedure is done under sedation and typically takes 1-2 hours.
Yes, ESG provides a permanent solution to weight loss, but it requires a commitment to a healthy lifestyle, including diet and exercise, for optimal results.
Ideal candidates are individuals with a BMI of 30-40 who have struggled with traditional weight-loss methods and are looking for a less invasive option than traditional surgery.
Patients typically lose 30-50% of their excess weight within the first year. Continued progress depends on maintaining a healthy diet and exercise regimen.
Most patients can return to normal activities within 2-3 days. During recovery, a modified diet is recommended to allow the stomach to adjust.
Candidacy depends on your medical history and weight-loss goals. To qualify, you must have a BMI over 30. A consultation with a specialist will determine if ESG is right for you.
Yes. Studies have shown significant improvement in conditions such as Type 2 diabetes and hypertension, with many patients losing at least 10% of their total body weight.
ESG typically takes 1-2 hours to complete, and no incisions are required, allowing for a faster recovery time compared to traditional surgery.
