Gastric Botox is one of the newest and safest non-surgical solutions for losing weight and getting in shape. It works in the same way that Botox works in the facial area. When Botox is injected into the stomach, it relaxes the stomach muscles so that stomach contractions are significantly hindered. The effect is to suppress hunger and bowel movements. As a result, you will feel full even if you eat only small amounts of food. This can stop you from gaining any more weight, along with exercise, of course, to get rid of the extra weight you already have. Gastric Botox injections are performed through a laparoscope, as it is a non-surgical procedure in which the doctor injects Botox into the stomach without surgical incision.
