Although the application and result part is the same, you should know that there are two different methods. Although the results are not very different, it can provide a very successful result. For a brief information about the methods, you can review the following;
Stomach Botox involves temporarily paralyzing a muscle in the patient's stomach by injecting botox liquid. With the paralysis of this muscle that provides digestion in the stomach, the patient's digestion is temporary. When this is supported by diet, the patient achieves a feeling of satiety with a small portion and stays full for a long time, since the food in the stomach will be digested late. This allows the patient to lose weight over a long period of time.
Gastric Balloon; There are two different types of gastric balloon: swallowable gastric balloon and normal gastric balloon. The way they work is the same. As a result of the balloon application, patients feel that their stomachs are full and they do not feel hungry. This facilitates the patient's diet as it suppresses the appetite. This helps you lose weight for sure.
