Gastric Botox (Intragastric Botox):
Gastric Botox is a non-surgical and minimally invasive weight loss treatment that involves the use of Botulinum Toxin (commonly known as Botox) injections into the stomach lining. This procedure aims to promote weight loss by temporarily reducing the size of the stomach and slowing down its emptying, leading to increased feelings of fullness and decreased appetite.
- Consultation and Assessment:
During your initial consultation, our experienced surgeon will discuss your weight loss goals, medical history, and overall health to determine if Gastric Botox is a suitable option for you. We will carefully assess your body mass index (BMI) and other relevant factors to create a personalized treatment plan that best suits your needs. - Gastric Botox Procedure:
The Gastric Botox procedure is performed in our clinic without the need for general anesthesia. Using an endoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a camera, our skilled medical professional will guide the Botox injections into the stomach lining. The Botox acts on the muscles of the stomach, causing them to relax and reducing stomach volume.
The procedure typically takes around 15-30 minutes to complete, and there is minimal discomfort involved. Patients can usually resume their regular activities shortly after the treatment. - Post-Procedure and Follow-Up:
Following Gastric Botox, you may experience a sense of fullness and reduced appetite, which can aid in weight loss. However, it is essential to adopt a healthy lifestyle and dietary habits to achieve the best long-term results. Our clinic provides ongoing support and guidance to help you make sustainable lifestyle changes that contribute to your weight loss success and overall well-being. - Results and Maintenance:
The effects of Gastric Botox are temporary, usually lasting for about 3 to 6 months. Periodic touch-up treatments may be recommended to maintain the desired results. The procedure can be repeated if necessary, depending on individual weight loss goals. - Conclusion:
