Benefits of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty for
Weight Loss

• According to recent data from the Centers for
  Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the adult
  obesity rate in Texas is at a staggering 34 per
  cent. Obesity is a silent killer because of its
  strong association with various life-threatening
  health conditions like cardiovascular disease,
  diabetes, stroke, and sleep apnea.

• People that fail to attain their weight loss
  goals through traditional weight loss programs
  are increasingly turning to quicker, non-surgical
  weight loss treatments such as minimally invasive
  endoscopic procedures available at DFW Bariatrics
  and General Surgery.

• What is Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty?
• Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) utilizes a
  flexible endoscope - a thin tube with a light and
  camera at one end. The endoscope is inserted
  through a patient's throat and allows the surgeon
  to view the gastrointestinal tract. During the
  procedure, part of the stomach wall is stitched
  together with sutures. The stitching creates a
  bunching effect and significantly reduces the
  overall stomach volume. Endoscopic Sleeve
  Gastroplasty is a revolutionary treatment for
  people looking to lose excess pounds. Reducing
  the stomach's volume decreases calorie intake, as
  you feel satisfied sooner than usual after
  eating.

• Advantages of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
• ESG takes about one to two hours to complete and
  has various advantages that contribute to making
  it a popular endoscopic weight-loss procedure.
  These include
• Minimally Invasive ESG does not require any
  incisions and does not involve removing any
  portion of the stomach, which reduces the risk of
  operative complications.
• Outpatient Procedure The procedure takes about
  60 to 120 minutes to complete, and no overnight
  stay at the hospital is required.
• No Change in Digestion Process During ESG, in no
  way is the natural digestion process altered,
  which reduces the risk of nutritional
  deficiencies. The procedure involves stitching
  together a part of the stomach wall to reduce
  stomach volume, which reduces the amount of food
  that a person can eat.

• Quick Recovery ESG is a relatively simple
  procedure that does not require months of
  recovery. You can resume routine activities
  within a few days of undergoing the procedure. 
• Effective ESG is considered one of the most
  effective procedures to counter obesity in the
  right population. People undergoing the procedure
  can expect to lose significant weight with proper
  adherence to post-procedure guidelines.
