GASTRIC BOTOX

Gastric Botox: Innovative Approach to Weight Loss

What is Gastric Botox?

Gastric Botox is a medical procedure performed using botulinum toxin produced by the Clostridium Botulinum bacteria. This toxin temporarily paralyses the muscles of the stomach. In this way, gastric emptying is delayed, the feeling of fullness increases and food intake decreases.

Why Choose Gastric Botox?

Gastric Botox might be a desirable choice for people who want to lose or control their weight or speed up the weight loss process. Can be preferred by individuals who cannot lose weight despite a diet or regular exercise. Carries the purpose of weight control without surgical intervention.

Who is a Suitable Candidate?

Gastric Botox may be considered for those who want to support the weight loss process. However, it may not be suitable for everyone. A doctor's evaluation is needed before application. It can also offer an alternative for people who do not meet the conditions for Gastric Surgery or people who would be risky to surgically intervene.
