THE PROCEDURE
What is Gastric Botox?
Gastric botox (intragastric botulinum toxin injection) is a non-surgical weight loss procedure where botulinum toxin is injected directly into the muscles of the stomach wall via endoscopy. This relaxes the stomach muscles, slowing the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine — keeping you feeling fuller for longer and significantly reducing appetite.
The procedure takes just 30-60 minutes, requires no incisions, and patients are discharged the same day. At Estelux Istanbul, gastric botox is performed by Op. Dr. Aslan — who has performed over 4,000 gastric botox procedures, making him one of the most experienced specialists in this field worldwide.

Same-day discharge
