What Is Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
The ESG Is A Cutting-Edge, Non-Invasive Weight Loss Procedure Intended To Assist Individuals In Shedding Excess Weight And Boosting Overall Wellbeing. It Employs An Endoscope—A Flexible Tube Fitted With A Camera And Suturing Device—And Unlike Traditional Bariatric Surgeries, It Does Not Necessitate Incisions Or Permanent Modifications To Your Digestive Anatomy.
ESG Vs. Gastric Sleeve
Both ESG and Gastric Sleeve aim to decrease the stomach size, but they differ significantly:
ESG
-
Procededure
Minimally invasive; no removal of stomach tissue -
Recovery
Typically quicker -
Risks
Fewer risks and complications -
Reversibility
Reversible if necessary
GASTRIC SLEEVE
-
Procededure

Recovery
Longer recovery time -
Risks
Higher risks and complications -
Reversibility
Irreversible; portion of stomach permanently removed
Post-Procedure Recovery:
The ESG procedure typically allows for a shorter recovery time compared to other weight loss surgeries. You might feel some discomfort, nausea, and possibly experience vomiting in the first few days post-procedure. These symptoms can be well-managed with the right medications. Generally, you can resume normal activities within a week. However, dietary modifications are required—starting with a liquid diet in the first week, then progressing to pureed food, followed by soft food, and finally, a regular diet over several weeks. Regular consultations with a dietician and the medical team are essential to oversee weight loss progress and manage diet changes.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty FAQs
No, ESG is a non-surgical procedure. It is done using an endoscope,which is inserted through your mouth and into your stomach. This approach allows the procedure to be completed without making any external cuts on the body.
The duration of the ESG procedure typically ranges between 60 and 90 minutes, although this may vary depending on individual circumstances.
In most cases, ESG is performed as an outpatient procedure, so you can return home the same day. However, in some instances, a short overnight stay may be required, depending on the patient’s health condition and the surgeon’s evaluation.
The ESG procedure typically has a quicker recovery time than other weight loss surgeries. Most patients can get back to their normal routine within a week. Post-procedure, dietary modifications are required, with a gradual shift from a liquid diet to pureed foods, then soft foods, and eventually, a regular diet over several weeks.
The results can vary, but on average, patients might expect to lose around 15-20% of their total body weight in the first year after the procedure. Long-term weight loss and maintenance largely depend on your commitment to dietary changes and lifestyle modifications.
Like any medical procedure, ESG comes with potential risks. These may include nausea, abdominal pain, and vomiting post-procedure. More serious complications are rare but can include conditions like bleeding, perforation, or infection.
