What if there was an alternative? A next-level solution to finally achieve the healthy, confident you waiting inside?
Introducing Apollo ESG: A Breakthrough Weight Loss Innovation
It’s time to transform your life on your terms. Apollo ESG performs an incisionless stomach reduction to curb hunger, accelerate weight loss, and boost metabolism fast – all without the risks of surgery.
What is Apollo ESG?
Apollo ESG, also known as Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty, is a non-surgical weight loss procedure performed with an endoscope. This means there are no external incisions or scarring involved.
During this outpatient procedure, our skilled gastroenterologist will insert special suturing devices through the endoscope to stitch together and reduce the size of your stomach by about 70-80%. This leaves you with a smaller stomach pouch that gets filled up quicker and empties more slowly. In turn, you’ll feel full faster, eat less, and lose weight.
The best part? The entire Apollo ESG procedure takes about an hour or less to perform. Most patients can go home the same day with minimal downtime. There are also no visible scars since all the work is done internally through the endoscope.

How Does Apollo ESG Help You Lose Weight?
There are a few ways that Apollo ESG promotes weight loss:
- Smaller stomach capacity. By reducing your stomach size by up to 80%, you’ll feel satisfied with much smaller portions and get fuller faster.
- Slower emptying. The sleeve shape slows down how quickly food empties from your stomach and enters your intestines. Thus prolonging the feeling of fullness between meals.
- Hormone changes. Your smaller stomach produces fewer hunger-stimulating hormones like ghrelin.
- Improved habits. With your reduced stomach, you’ll need to chew food thoroughly and eat slowly. This promotes mindful eating habits for sustained change.
Together, these effects mean you can lose significant weight and keep it off long-term. Patients typically lose an average of 14% of their total body weight after Apollo ESG.
Is Apollo ESG Right for You?
Apollo ESG may be a good option if you:
- Have a BMI of 30 to 50.
- Want to lose 30 pounds or more.
- Haven’t lost weight with diet and exercise alone.
- Want to avoid surgery. ESG requires no incisions so recovery is much easier.
- Don’t want an implanted device. ESG uses dissolvable sutures instead.
- Are healthy enough for anesthesia.
Our experts will conduct a thorough evaluation during a consultation to determine if you’re an appropriate candidate for Apollo ESG. We’ll review your full medical history and develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and health profile.
What to Expect with Apollo ESG
Wondering what it’s like to get Apollo ESG? Here’s a basic outline of what to expect every step of the way:
Before the procedure
- Consultation. Meet with your doctor to discuss ESG and determine if it’s right for you.
- Preparation. You’ll need to fast overnight and take prescribed medications to anesthetize your throat.
- Anesthesia. You’ll be given general anesthesia through an IV to keep you comfortable.
During the procedure
- Endoscope inserted. A flexible tube with a camera is guided down your throat and into your stomach.
- Stomach sutured. Special instruments are passed through the tube to stitch your stomach into a sleeve shape.
- Monitoring. Your doctor observes the procedure on a video screen and makes adjustments as needed.
After the procedure
- Recovery room. You’ll wake up and recover from anesthesia before going home.
- Liquid diet. Gradually progress from clear liquids to purées as your stomach heals over 2-4 weeks.
- Normal activities. You can usually resume work and other routines within 1-3 days.
- Follow-up visits. Check-in with your care team periodically to monitor your progress.
The actual Apollo ESG procedure takes about 60 minutes or less. With minimal downtime required, you’ll be on your way to a slimmer figure in no time!

Frequently Asked Questions About Apollo ESG
How long does the Apollo ESG procedure take?
The procedure itself takes about 60 to 90 minutes. You will likely be able to go home the same day once you have recovered from the anesthesia, usually within a few hours.
What is the recovery time after Apollo ESG?
Most can return to normal activities in 2 to 3 days, though a liquid diet is necessary for 1 to 2 weeks post-procedure to allow proper healing. Avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting for at least 1 week.
Does Apollo ESG require a hospital stay?
Most patients can go home the same day. However, your doctor may recommend an overnight hospital stay depending on your health status and how you tolerate the procedure.
What are the potential risks or side effects of Apollo ESG?
Like all procedures, Apollo ESG has some risks like nausea, vomiting, or abdominal discomfort. These usually resolve within 2 months. More serious risks like perforations or breathing issues are very rare when performed by an experienced doctor.
Is Apollo ESG permanent or temporary?
The suture material does not dissolve over time but stays intact to maintain the stomach reduction. However, if weight gain leads to stretching of the stomach later on, a revision may be needed.
