Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
The duration of the operation
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty usually takes 45 minutes and is considered a one-day operation.
How to perform the operation
It is done using an oral endoscope without making any surgical incisions in the abdominal wall
The shape of the stomach after the operation
The size of the stomach is reduced by 50-60% of its normal size, which gives the patient a faster feeling of satiety with small amounts of food and for relatively longer periods.
Who is a candidate for Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty is suitable for those who have a weight gain of 15-20 kg, Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty is typically recommended for people who have a body mass index (BMI) of 27 or higher and have not been able to achieve weight loss through traditional methods such as diet and exercise. It may also be recommended for people who are not good candidates for traditional weight loss surgeries, such as gastric bypass surgery, due to medical reasons.

Features of the gastric retraction process
- The Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty process is one of the safe operations, and all devices used in it are approved by the international food and drug authorities
- No part of the stomach is removed or cut, and we have restored the stomach to its normal shape in some patients after they reach the ideal weight without any complications.
