 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.
