The Journey to a Healthier, More Confident You
Weight loss surgery in South Africa is not a cosmetic decision — it is a profound medical commitment to your long-term health, vitality, and quality of life. At Vivari, we understand that for many patients, obesity is not a reflection of willpower or discipline, but a complex medical condition that requires a clinically guided, compassionately delivered solution.
Our specialist weight loss team approaches every patient with absolute dignity, empathy, and medical precision — understanding that the decision to pursue surgical weight loss is one of the most significant and courageous commitments a person can make. Whether you are seeking to resolve obesity-related health conditions, reclaim the physical vitality that excess weight has quietly taken from you, or simply take the first meaningful step toward a life that feels fully and freely your own, every weight loss journey at Vivari is guided by a single principle: to support your transformation with the highest standard of medical expertise, personalised care, and compassionate human connection.
Exclusively at Vivari Aesthetics — South Africa’s premier destination for weight loss surgery in South Africa and luxury medically guided metabolic transformation.
The Procedures
Our Specialist Weight Loss Treatments Two precisely defined procedures. One unified philosophy of medically guided, compassionately delivered, long-term weight loss transformation.
01
Intragastric Balloon
GASTRIC BALLOON WEIGHT LOSS
Commonly referred to as a gastric balloon, the Intragastric Balloon is a minimally invasive, non-surgical weight loss procedure — placing a soft silicone balloon in the stomach to reduce capacity, encourage portion control, and kickstart a sustainable weight loss journey without incisions or scars.
02
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty
NON-SURGICAL STOMACH REDUCTION
Commonly referred to as ESG, the Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty is an innovative non-surgical stomach reduction procedure — using an endoscope to reduce stomach size by up to 70% without incisions, scars, or the recovery demands of traditional bariatric surgery.
