BariClip Procedure

The BariClip procedure is one of the newest non-surgical solutions for obesity. It relies on placing a special clip on the upper part of the stomach to reduce its size without cutting or removing any part. It is performed under general anesthesia, without altering stomach anatomy and without bypassing the intestines, making it reversible in the future if needed. The procedure is safe, quick, and helps reduce appetite while achieving stable weight loss without the risks of leakage or malabsorption. BariClip is an ideal option for patients seeking an effective solution with the possibility of reversal.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

ESG is an advanced endoscopic technique performed without any surgical incisions. A specialized endoscope is used to create internal sutures that reduce stomach volume into a tube-like shape similar to a surgical sleeve. No cutting or removal of stomach tissue is involved, which ensures greater safety and faster recovery time. ESG helps control appetite, improve eating habits, and achieve excellent weight loss while maintaining full gastrointestinal function. It is an ideal option for patients seeking an effective, non-surgical solution.

Gastric Balloon

The gastric balloon is a non-surgical procedure inserted through the mouth into the stomach to occupy extra space, reducing appetite and enhancing the feeling of fullness. It promotes gradual weight loss and is an excellent option for those beginning their obesity treatment journey or those who are currently unsuitable for surgery. Some types are adjustable and can remain in the stomach for up to 12 months.
