This revolutionary procedure is available for individuals who have had previous gastric bypass surgery and who are now regaining weight. The procedure is non invasive and does not involve any incisions. The procedure involves placing an endoscope through the mouth into the stomach pouch.

The procedure also shrinks the stomach pouch and makes it small, similar to the outcome of the original gastric bypass procedure.
