Effective Weight Loss with Gastric Plication in Puerto Vallarta
Gastric Plication, also known as Laparoscopic Greater Curvature Plication (LGCP), offers a minimally invasive approach to weight loss that’s both effective and sustainable. At Hidalgo Bariatrics Puerto Vallarta, we’re committed to providing comprehensive care and support to help you achieve your weight loss goals with this innovative procedure.
What is Gastric Plication?
Gastric Plication involves reducing the size of the stomach by folding and suturing the stomach lining, creating a smaller stomach pouch. This limits the amount of food you can comfortably consume, leading to reduced calorie intake and gradual weight loss over time.
Experience the potential to shed up to 70% of excess weight through Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery. Dr. Hidalgo often recommends this procedure for patients seeking substantial weight loss beyond what a gastric sleeve can provide, without necessitating a full gastric bypass.
Benefits of Gastric Plication
Minimally Invasive: Enjoy the benefits of a less invasive surgical procedure, resulting in shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, and reduced post-operative discomfort.

Preserves Digestive Function: Unlike some other bariatric procedures, Gastric Plication maintains the natural flow of digestive juices, minimizing the risk of nutritional deficiencies.
Recovery: Typically, patients can resume normal activities within a few days to a week after Gastric Plication surgery. However, strenuous activities and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks to allow the body to heal properly. It’s essential to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions closely to ensure a smooth recovery and minimize the risk of complications.
Is Gastric Plication Right for You?
Gastric Plication may be suitable for individuals who are looking for a less invasive alternative to traditional weight loss surgeries such as gastric bypass or gastric sleeve. It is particularly beneficial for those who may not qualify for or prefer to avoid more invasive procedures.
Understanding Gastric Plication: A Unique Approach to Weight Loss
Gastric Plication distinguishes itself from Gastric Sleeve surgery by employing a different method to reduce stomach size. Rather than removing a portion of the stomach, as done in Gastric Sleeve surgery, Gastric Plication involves folding and suturing the stomach in on itself to create a smaller stomach pouch. This innovative technique aims to promote a sense of fullness during meals, facilitating reduced food intake and gradual weight loss over time.
During Gastric Plication surgery, Dr. Hidalgo skillfully folds and sutures the stomach to create a restrictive barrier, limiting the amount of food that can be comfortably consumed. By reducing the stomach’s capacity, this procedure encourages portion control and supports sustainable weight loss efforts.
