Botox has been used for many years in the treatment of many diseases and for cosmetic purposes. Stomach botox application is a popular weight loss method in recent years. Botox applied to the stomach with the help of endoscopy has two results. The first is to prolong the gastric emptying time, to ensure that the feeling of fullness lasts longer, and the second is to reduce the appetite hormone. Thanks to these effects, we can say that it is a very successful lifestyle regulator for those who eat irregularly, feel the need to snack frequently, and especially those who want to eat something after a few meals.
It can be applied to almost any patient between the ages of 16-70 with a BMI of 27 or more, who have weight problems. Especially patients with 10-20 kg excess can have it done.
It is not recommended for those with stomach ulcers, those who have had a heart attack in the last 6 months, and those with autoimmune diseases.
