Frequently asked questions
How long does endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) take?
The procedure itself takes approximately 60 minutes. However, you should plan on spending about half a day with us including preparation and recovery.
What is recovery like after endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG)?
Patients go home on the same day. Most take a few days off to recover at home before returning to work. After the procedure, patients follow a full liquid meal plan, which includes protein shakes and similar products, then transition to a soft diet, which includes easy-to-eat foods such as oatmeal and bananas, and then return to regular eating.
Is endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) reversible?
Your doctor can use one of three available suturing or plication devices to perform ESG/EGP. ESG can be reversible, while EGP is typically not. If this is important to you, you should discuss this with your provider prior to the procedure.
How does ESG compare to endoscopic gastric plication (EGP)?
Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) folds your stomach outward, while endoscopic gastric plication (ESG) folds your stomach inward. This is why ESG can be reversible and EGP is typically not. Additionally, some stomachs, depending on their shape and size, may respond better to a specific device. Having access to all three suturing and plication devices allows your doctor to tailor the procedure for best results.
How does ESG compare to sleeve gastrectomy?
Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is a less invasive, non-surgical weight loss option with a quicker recovery, no scarring, and fewer complications, typically requiring 1 to 3 days off work. In contrast, sleeve gastrectomy is a surgical procedure with more significant weight loss but involves a longer recovery, hospital stay of 1 to 3 days, and 2 to 4 weeks off work. Consult with our clinical team or your healthcare provider to determine the best option for you.
How does ESG compare to gastric bypass?
Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is a less invasive, non-surgical weight loss option with a quicker recovery, no scarring, and fewer complications, typically requiring 1 to 3 days off work. In contrast, gastric bypass is a surgical procedure with more significant weight loss but involves a longer recovery, hospital stay of 1 to 3 days, and 2 to 4 weeks off work. Consult with our clinical team or your healthcare provider to determine the best option for you.
How much does endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty cost?
