Gastric plication is a weight loss surgery that involves folding and securing the outer edges of the stomach to reduce its size and capacity. By decreasing the size of the stomach, patients feel fuller faster and eat less, leading to weight loss. Unlike gastric bypass procedures, this method does not involve rerouting the digestive system or creating a pouch in the stomach.
