Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG), also known as the non-surgical sleeve, endosleeve, or accordion procedure, is a minimally invasive weight-loss procedure that uses an endoscopic suturing device to reduce stomach size without external incisions. By creating a smaller stomach, it helps patients feel full with smaller portions. ESG may be an option for people with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher who haven’t achieved lasting results through diet and exercise, depending on an individual medical evaluation.
