What is Gastric Botox?

Gastric Botox or stomach botulinum toxin injection is a minor procedure where the stomach muscles are temporarily relaxed; this slows digestion down and allows patients to remain fuller for longer with reduced appetite. It is a non-surgical way to help one lose weight.

How the Procedure Works

Botox is injected into the lining of the stomach in selected areas using an endoscope under mild sedation. The procedure can take roughly 15-20 minutes and, shortly after, potentially have the patient back home. The effects of the Botox generally last from 3-6 months.

Ideal Candidates

It is designed for patients with a BMI between 25 and 35, in whom the conventional ways of weight loss were not successful, and who seek a temporary, non-surgical intervention. In such patients, Gastric Botox is best regarding appetite control by allowing the adoption of healthy eating habits.

Expected Weight Loss

The weight loss following this procedure may be average, approximately around 5-10% of the body weight within a few months, according to diet, exercise, and life style changes.

Advantages of Gastric Botox

Nonsurgical, Quick Recovery: This is a minor outpatient procedure with very little down time.
Appetite Control: It helps reduce hunger and control the size of portions.
Temporary and Reversible: Effects of this wear off in time, which allows for flexibility in treatment.

Procedure Aftercare

After the procedure, it is advisable that the patient should be on a balanced and healthy diet and regular physical activity in order to maximize and maintain results.

Considerations

Generally well-tolerated, mild side effects include nausea or bloating, which are usually transient. A consultation would eliminate unsuitable candidates and further minimize risks.

Gastric Botox is a relatively new, non-surgical weight loss procedure that is highly indicated for those who need appetite control and supportive healthy lifestyle behavior. The procedure is temporary and, therefore, an effective alternative for all those who seek a non-permanent aid in weight loss.
