1 DaysEndoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure where the stomach is reshaped into a smaller tube using sutures, reducing its size and capacity without any external cuts or removal of tissue.
ESG is ideal for individuals with a BMI between 30 and 40, who haven’t succeeded with diet or exercise alone and want a less invasive alternative to bariatric surgery. It’s also suitable for patients avoiding general surgery due to health concerns.
A flexible endoscope is passed through the mouth into the stomach. Using a specialized suturing device, the stomach is folded and stitched from the inside, forming a sleeve-like structure that slows digestion and promotes early fullness.

Unlike surgical sleeve gastrectomy, ESG does not involve cutting or removing part of the stomach, leading to fewer complications, faster recovery, and no external scars—while still offering effective weight loss results.
The ESG procedure typically takes 60 to 90 minutes, and most patients return home the same day. Full recovery usually occurs within a week, making it one of the most convenient options in modern bariatric care.
Although safer than traditional surgery, ESG may cause side effects such as nausea, abdominal discomfort, or acid reflux in the short term. Rare risks include bleeding or infection, but overall complication rates are very low.
