Not every patient wants surgery.
And not every patient is ready for a procedure like ESG or a gastric balloon.
Some patients are looking for something less invasive — but still medically guided.
That’s where the GastroTox™ Program comes in.
What Is Gastric Botulinum Toxin Therapy?
Gastric Botulinum Toxin Therapy uses targeted botulinum toxin injections inside the stomach to help slow gastric emptying and reduce hunger signals.
The goal is simple:
- Help patients feel full sooner.
- Reduce appetite.
- Support portion control.
This creates a structured tool to help patients stay more consistent with nutrition and weight loss efforts.

How the Procedure Works
The treatment is performed endoscopically.
Using a thin flexible camera, botulinum toxin is injected into specific areas of the stomach.
- No external incisions.
- No surgery.
Most patients go home the same day.
At EndoSlim Clinic NY, GastroTox™ is used as part of a broader medically guided strategy — not a standalone shortcut.
Why Patients Are Interested
Many patients struggle with constant hunger and portion control.
Even motivated patients often describe the same cycle:
- They start strong.
- Hunger returns.
- Consistency fades.
GastroTox™ is designed to help interrupt that cycle.
It’s not a replacement for lifestyle changes — but it can make those changes easier to maintain.
Who May Be a Candidate?
GastroTox™ may be appropriate for patients who:
- Want a non-surgical option
- Are not ready for ESG or balloons
- Need support with appetite control
- Want physician-guided weight loss support
Treatment recommendations are individualized after evaluation.

What Makes It Different
This is not cosmetic “quick-fix” weight loss.
At EndoSlim Clinic NY, GastroTox™ is part of a medically guided program focused on structured support and follow-up.
That matters.
Because long-term results depend on consistency — not temporary restriction.

Recovery is typically quick, and most patients resume normal activity shortly after the procedure.

A Message from Dr. Shapsis
Not every patient needs the same solution.
Some patients benefit from surgery.
Others need a less invasive place to start.
That’s why I believe weight loss treatment should be individualized — based on the patient, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Modern obesity medicine continues to evolve, and today we have more tools than ever to help patients move forward safely, realistically, and with proper medical guidance.
