Gastric Filler (Stomach Filler) or more correctly named gastroscopic application of botilinum toxin type A is a procedure where we apply filler to the muscular wall of the stomach with help of an non surgical endoscopic procedure called gastroscopy.
When applied to gastric wall filler, just like when applied to face, it decreases the stomach muscle movements which leads to prolenged satisfaction with food and less need of eating. When stomach contents stay in for longer time we feel less need for having meal or junk food meal. Also gastric filler (stomach filler), when administrated to the special site of the stomach called “Fundus” ,which is the doom of apetite, many of the patients feel less hunger due to the decrease in the level appetite hormone called “Ghrelin” .
Gastric, is an outpatient endoscopic procedure mostly preferred by patients who are interested in losing moderate amount of weight, as quickly and safely as possible. It takes up the space in between laparoscopic surgeries and diet and exercise. It is the simplest way of losing weight and performed by to stomach muscles in which the feeling of prolonged fullness is achieved and your eating habits having changed, enabling food to empty from the stomach more easily. It takes approximately 15-30 minutes. The result will be sustained for approximately up to 6 months and as long as you keep on adherence to a dietary programme, the results are expected to be a bit more prolonged and promising.
