We now offer the most advanced minimally invasive technique for weight loss surgery revision.
While many patients achieve successful results with their first bariatric surgery, others do not. Some patients experience significant side effects or complications from an earlier bariatric surgery. This may affect quality of life. Other patients seek revisional bariatric surgery when they do not achieve the expected rate of weight loss.

How it’s done
The OverStitch procedure is endoscopic, meaning it’s minimally invasive. Instead of relying on a large incision used in traditional open surgery, surgeons insert a long, flexible tube into your mouth and down your esophagus. The tube carries durable sutures and special instruments used to perform the procedure. Your surgeon will suture the surrounding area of your stomach, making the opening smaller. They may also suture your stomach pouch to decrease its size and restrict the amount of food it can hold.
What are the advantages of the OverStitch procedure?
Doctors may recommend the procedure to some patients because it offers certain benefits, including:
- Less invasive and no incisions
- Quicker procedure compared to traditional surgery
- Outpatient procedure – in and out of the hospital the same day
- Lower risk of complications during or after the procedure
- Same rate of weight loss as your original bariatric procedure
Is the OverStitch procedure right for me?
Not everyone is a candidate for the OverStitch procedure. This is because weight gain may not be a result of an enlarged opening into the stomach. Talk with your doctor to see if Overstitch surgery is right for you.
