Our Gastric bypass Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Gastric bypass, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Gastric Balloon

A gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss option involving inserting a balloon into the stomach to reduce food intake.

Pros: Minimally invasive with no incisions. It offers a temporary solution, allowing removal if needed. 30% weight loss within 6 months is common.
Cons: Potential for nausea and vomiting in 30% of patients. Limited to 6-month duration, requiring further intervention for long-term results.
Effectiveness: Achieves up to 15%-30% total body weight loss.
Duration: 20-30 minutes
Recovery: 1-2 days
Best for: Individuals with a BMI of 30-40. Ideal for those seeking non-surgical weight loss.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)

A minimally invasive weight loss procedure that reduces the stomach size using an endoscopic suturing device.

Pros: Less invasive than Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass. Quicker recovery compared to metabolic surgery. No external incisions. 15-20% total body weight loss in a year.
Cons: Less effective long-term weight loss compared to Da Vinci Gastric Bypass. Possible stomach stretching over time.
Effectiveness: Achieves 15-20% total body weight loss within one year.

Duration: 2-4 hours

Duration: 2-4 hours
Recovery: 2-4 weeks
Best for: Patients with BMI over 40, or over 35 with obesity-related health issues.
