Explained in detail

Our treatments at a glance

From the temporary gastric balloon to support through the app and coaches – what we offer and for whom it may be considered.

Temporary stomach reduction

Gastric balloon: a companion for a time

The gastric balloon reduces the capacity of the stomach for a limited time: you feel full sooner and manage with smaller portions. It is then removed again – the treatment is fully reversible. Three variants are available.

The Spatz3 gastric balloon for 12 months is a procedure without incisions that accompanies you for a year while you lose weight. What is special: its filling volume can be adjusted while it is worn. It places little strain on the stomach.

The gastric balloon for 6 months is placed in the stomach by gastroscopy and filled with saline solution. It stays there for half a year and is then removed without residue. Because you feel full sooner, it can help to avoid cravings.

The Allurion gastric balloon comes as a small capsule that you simply swallow – entirely without a procedure and without anaesthesia, it finds its way into the stomach this way.

Weight Doctors SLEEVE®: permanent, without incisions

The Weight Doctors SLEEVE® is a permanent stomach reduction without a classic operation – endoscopically through the mouth, as an outpatient and without scars. Food intake is reduced, and the feeling of fullness can set in earlier and last longer. Two technologies are available for the procedure.

  • OverStitch NXT™With the OverStitch NXT™ technology, too, the stomach can be reduced by up to 75%. It is nickel-free and therefore suitable for almost all patients who react allergically.
Minimally invasive weight-loss surgery

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS®: weight-loss surgery for higher BMIs

Weight Doctors BARIATRICS® comprises gastric bypass and gastric sleeve surgery for higher BMIs, including private medical preliminary care and aftercare. Both procedures are performed using modern laparoscopic keyhole surgery.

  • Gastric BypassThe gastric bypass changes not only the size of the stomach but also the path of food through the intestine – it is the more extensive of the two procedures. We perform it in two variants, as a Roux-en-Y or as an omega-loop gastric bypass.
  • Gastric SleeveThe gastric sleeve is the less extensive of the two surgical procedures. It is based on the LSG technique (“Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy”), which is used worldwide.
Specialisations

hydroGMA and REVISION: when more is needed

When hunger is stronger than any resolution, Weight Doctors® hydroGMA comes in: a gentle endoscopic procedure that, in a single application of around 30 minutes – without an operation and without medication – reduces the production of the hunger hormone ghrelin. The result can be less craving and a faster feeling of fullness. Weight loss of up to 15% is reported, tending to be more in combination with the Weight Doctors SLEEVE®; results vary from person to person.

Sometimes the first path does not lead straight to the goal – whether through renewed weight gain, through complaints such as reflux or dumping syndrome, or because the previous operation did not bring the desired success. Complications or insufficient weight loss after an obesity operation are not uncommon and not a personal failure. In the special consultation hours of Weight Doctors® REVISION, we clarify the causes and offer the modern revision procedures – from endoscopic procedures to corrective surgery. You receive an honest second opinion and a second chance.

After weight loss

Weight Doctors® RESHAPE: body shaping after weight loss

Weight Doctors® RESHAPE is post-bariatric body optimisation after successful weight loss: tightening, liposuction and body lift when excess skin or stubborn fat deposits remain. You are treated by specialists in plastic and aesthetic surgery.

Losing weight entirely without a procedure

GLP-⁠1 pharmacotherapy and Weight Doctors® 360°

Losing weight without an operation, medically guided: in Weight Doctors® GLP-⁠1 pharmacotherapy, the focus is not on a particular medication but on medical therapy management. GLP-⁠1 is a gut hormone produced by the body, which modern obesity medicine takes as its guide. Your specialist reviews your health situation, prescribes – where medically appropriate – a suitable medication and supports you with monthly progress checks, from the specialist consultation to the e-prescription. On average, a weight reduction of around 15% is possible this way, medically supervised and varying from person to person.

With Weight Doctors® 360°, you receive nutrition tips before and after your procedure for every Weight Doctors® treatment. On request, a personal Weight Doctors® 360 coach also accompanies you through the therapy, and you stay in contact with your treating specialist. From our experience with tens of thousands of patients, we give you tips that strengthen your motivation – more on this in nutrition coaching.

Digital support

App, 3D Bodyscan, Weight Doctors® Mira and 360 coaches

At the start of every Weight Doctors® treatment, you receive 12 months' access to the Weight Doctors® App. A digital smart body scale is connected to the app – so you and our team can keep an eye on your weight-loss progress at any time, we can evaluate your progress and adjust your therapy accordingly. The app also offers a wealth of knowledge with guides on nutrition, exercise and mental strength.

Well-being is more than a number on the scales. The Weight Doctors® 3D Bodyscan analyses your body composition with AI-supported laser technology, gives you an understandable overview of your body values and creates a digital avatar. With it, we follow together how body measurements, body values, balance and posture change over the course of therapy.
