ESG → Obesity treatment using an endoscope with minimal risk. A gastroscope is inserted and the stomach is sewn from the inside with thread to shrink it by about 70-80%. Since the surgery can be performed without cutting the abdomen, recovery is quick.
Stomach Botox → Lose weight by injecting "botulinum toxin" into the stomach! It relaxes the stomach muscles, temporarily reducing muscle contractions and making you feel fuller faster. You will feel fuller longer than usual and be able to reduce your food intake.

- After gastroscopy, blood sampling, and electrocardiogram examinations are performed in one day, the doctor will explain the operation (about 1-2 hours)

- On the day of surgery, the procedure is same-day surgery (surgery takes about 1 hour, and you can go home in as little as 3 hours including postoperative rest)

- The day after surgery, blood sampling, wound check, and explanation from the doctor are completed

- Approximately 15-20% weight loss rate, and when used in combination with medication, the effect is comparable to surgery (see literature) In a systematic review in Europe and the United States, the total weight loss rate was 14.8-18.6%, and the 5-year total weight loss rate was 15.9%, and the weight loss effect was maintained



- All completed on the day of the visit

- After the doctor's examination, you take the treatment drug orally and the treatment is completed in about 15 minutes while you are asleep through an IV drip. After the doctor's examination, you can go home after observing your progress for about 1 hour.

- Only on the day of surgery, no examinations or tests before or after
