Losing weight has a greater impact on your health than just looking good.

  • Body weight reduction:
    Patients can lose between 15% and 35% of their total body weight during the first ten months.
  • Improving type 2 diabetes:
    Weight loss can significantly improve blood glucose levels and insulin resistance, aiding management and, in some cases, remission of type 2 diabetes.
  • Hypertension:
    Weight reduction helps lower blood pressure, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
  • Cholesterol control:
    Losing weight helps decrease LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and triglycerides, improving the lipid profile.
How Bariatric Endoscopy Works
Bariatric endoscopy is a minimally invasive set of procedures performed through the mouth,
without external cuts. Two primary options:

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)

  • What it does:
Reduces stomach volume using endoscopic sutures to enhance early fullness and portion control.
  • How it’s performed:
Under anesthesia via a flexible endoscope; typically outpatient, with no visible scars.
  • Who qualifies:
Patients with overweight to moderate obesity, or those seeking a less invasive alternative to surgical sleeve/bypass

Gastric Balloon

You can lose up to 34.7% of your total body weight with the industry-leading, best-in-class gastric balloon.
  • What it does:
Places a temporary balloon inside the stomach to reduce appetite and reinforce healthy eating habits.
  • How it’s performed:
Quick endoscopic placement and scheduled removal; no surgery required.

  • ESG
    (Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty):
It reduces the stomach’s size and volume by approximately 70%.
In clinical practice, patients can achieve meaningful total body weight loss when ESG is paired with nutrition, activity, and follow-ups. We’ll discuss your personalized projection during consultation and set realistic milestones together
It’s a reversible, outpatient, and highly effective technique, indicated for patients with a body mass index (BMI) between 30 and 40—or even higher, depending on the clinical case.

FAQs
Bariatric Endoscopy in Mexico (for US/Canada Patients)

Is bariatric endoscopy as effective as surgery?

It depends on your profile. For moderate obesity, ESG can produce significant weight loss when paired with lifestyle support. For very high BMI or complex comorbidities, surgery may be preferable. We’ll define the safest, most effective route for you.

How long do I need to stay in Querétaro?

Most patients arrive one day before, undergo a same-day or short-stay procedure, and attend a follow-up before flying home. We tailor this to your flight plan and clinical needs.

What’s included in the package?

Pre-travel virtual assessment, procedure, professional fees, and structured tele-follow-up. Transfers and lodging are coordinated per preference and quoted transparently.

Can endoscopy help after prior bariatric surgery?

Yes—selected endoscopic revisions may be considered after prior sleeve or other procedures, depending on individual anatomy and goals. We confirm via evaluation.

What are the risks?

All procedures carry risks, although endoscopic options typically have a much lower complication profile than surgical procedures. We’ll discuss your specific case and how we mitigate those risks during the virtual evaluation.
