Gastric Botox is a non-surgical procedure used as a support for weight loss. It involves injecting botulinum toxin into specific areas of the stomach through endoscopy, with the aim of reducing gastric muscle activity, increasing the feeling of fullness, and helping to control appetite.

Procedure

Medical evaluation:
The patient is evaluated beforehand to determine whether they are a suitable candidate based on their health status and weight goals.

Application:
The procedure is performed via endoscopy, without surgery or incisions, by injecting Botox into specific areas of the stomach.

Duration of effect:
The effects usually last between 4 and 6 months, depending on each patient and their metabolism.

Recovery:
It is an outpatient procedure, meaning the patient can return to daily activities shortly after, following medical instructions.

Who is it recommended for?

• People who are overweight and looking for a non-surgical option

• Patients who want to control appetite and improve eating habits

• Individuals who are not candidates for or do not want bariatric surgery

• Patients committed to lifestyle changes

Effectiveness

Gastric Botox can help reduce food intake and support weight loss when combined with a balanced diet and medical follow-up. Results vary depending on each patient and their commitment to lifestyle changes.
