What is Gastric Botox?
First of all, lifestyle changes and physical activity are recommended in obesity treatment. For individuals who cannot achieve success with these methods, different alternatives have been developed with progressive medicine. Among the weight loss methods, one of the non-surgical methods that has become popular recently is stomach botox. Although Botox is a method that is frequently used, it has recently entered our lives as a method applied to certain parts of the stomach in order to control weight.
Who can have Stomach Botox? Are there any side effects?
Basically, it can be applied to anyone who has excess weight and has failed with the weight loss methods they have tried before. However, it should not be applied to individuals with muscle disease, chronic ulcer problems, and botox allergies. In addition, we do not recommend this method because there are not enough studies to apply it to pregnant and lactating individuals.
No side effects of botox have been observed in the studies conducted.
How does Stomach Botox affect the body?
The aim is to slow down the contraction of the stomach muscles to allow the stomach to empty later and to suppress the appetite by affecting the hunger-satiety mechanism in the stomach. Its effectiveness continues for about 6 months, and in this process, we follow the individual closely in our center and provide weight control in the company of a dietician. In this way, the person adapts more easily to the diet after stomach botox. It is possible to obtain very good results if the individual evaluates this process well. However, no method is miraculous in losing weight. The individual should also give importance to nutrition and physical activity.
How much weight loss expected after 6 months after Stomach Botox?
It is necessary to evaluate this situation individually. It differs from person to person. We aim for weight loss to be approximately 10% of the person’s weight in this 6-month period. Of course, this rate may also vary depending on the lifestyle of the individual before the botox procedure. Weight loss methods that the individual has tried before and the results of these methods can be listed among the factors that affect the individual’s presence of a comorbid disease.
