NON-SURGICAL WEIGHT LOSS OPTIONS
No Knives, No Long Recoveries, No Fear
Are you struggling to lose weight with diet and exercise alone? Expensive and drastic surgery isn’t the only option for weight loss. Bhatti Weightloss and Sculpting offers non-surgical weight loss options to help you lose the weight and keep it off! Learn more about our procedures below.
Orbera® Non-Surgical Gastric Balloon
Lose weight and keep it off – without surgery. Orbera® helps patients lose 3x the weight of diet and exercise alone. In our experience, most of our patients lose 10-20% of their body weight. This is not guaranteed and can vary, but Orbera® is an attractive weight loss options for those who have tried everything else and need a little boost in their weight loss journey.
Who is Orbera® For?
Orbera® is a non-surgical alternative for those who struggle to lose weight. If you’ve tried countless other diets and exercise programs, Orbera® can help you by giving you an initial boost to your weight loss journey.
How Much Does Orbera® Cost?
Orbera® costs $7,000 and is generally not covered by insurance. However, you can use FSA or HSA dollars. We also accept Care Credit. Because of our experience with Orbera® and other non-surgical weight loss options, we can help you find the best payment option.
OverStitch™ Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)
Another non-surgical weight loss option we offer is OverStitch™ Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG). This is a semi-permeant option that’s still less invasive than traditional weight loss surgery. For those who have tried every other option and are considering surgery, this can be a less intensive alternative. In the first 1-2 months, our patients typically lose 10-40 pounds. Because it is semi-permanent, you could lose all excess weight over time.
What is OverStitch™?
OverStitch™ is similar in concept to “stomach stapling” or gastric sleeve surgeries that you may have heard of. A flexible tube called an endoscope goes down your throat into your stomach and places stitches to make the inside area of your stomach smaller. This is less invasive than a gastric sleeve surgery because it shrinks your stomach area from the inside instead of from the outside.
Who is OverStitch™ For?
OverStitch™ is ideal for people who are considering surgical weight loss options, but are wary of surgery. Unlike surgery, OverStitch™ is reversible.
If you’re unsure if you qualify for OverStitch™ or any other non-surgical weight loss option, please contact our team for a consultation.
