We help people to lose weight.
A new, innovative, and outpatient weight-loss therapy for the treatment of obesity.
Freezing the hunger feeling.
20 minutes will change your life – a fast and uncomplicated therapy.
Just a short, one-off, minimally invasive cryo-ablation procedure. But the feeling of hunger is permanently reduced in the long term. Nothing remains in the body.
Our therapy in a nutshell.
About us.
Our business: a new interventional weight-loss therapy.
A team of experienced engineers and physicians is developing a medical device for a minimally invasive, outpatient, interventional treatment of obesity.
The therapy is easy to execute without major risks or major side effects.
A prototype has been developed and successfully tested for safety and efficacy.
Several awards and prizes confirm our innovative approach.
Obesity.
The world is getting fatter. Fast.
Obesity is a serious disease. It causes a variety of secondary diseases such as diabetes, stroke and 13 different types of cancer. The cost to the healthcare system increases by 40% because one in five people is obese.
Forecasts of obesity market revenues (USD by 2030)
Our therapy.
Freezing the hunger feeling.
We have developed a medical device for a one-time, interventional therapy. By this office-based procedure a long-term reduction of the hunger feeling will be achieved. The gastric trunks of the vagus nerve conveying the hunger feeling to the brain are disrupted by the proven technology of cryo-ablation.
