Gastric Botox is a non-surgical procedure that is very beneficial for persons who have a small amount of extra weight. Botox paralyzes stomach nerves and muscles for 4 to 6
months, lowering appetite and allowing nutrients to stay in the stomach longer.
Gastric Sleeve
Sleeve gastrectomy, commonly known as vertical sleeve gastrectomy, is a weight-loss surgical treatment. This treatment is usually done laparoscopically, which includes putting small instruments into the upper belly through many small incisions.
