REvision of VSG with Ablation of the Mucosa Procedure for Weight Regain

This study is looking at a procedure called Gastric Mucosal Ablation (GMA) for people who have regained weight after having sleeve gastrectomy surgery. GMA uses a device to treat the lining of the stomach. The main goal is to see if this procedure is safe and possible to do. Researchers will measure the percentage of total body weight you lose from the start of the study to 6 months later. You may be able to join if you are between 22 and 60 years old, have a BMI of 30 or higher, and have regained at least 25% of the weight you lost after your initial sleeve gastrectomy, which must have been at least three years ago. The study plans to enroll 5 participants.
