Everself

↳ Challenge

Bariendo was the company that pioneered ESG (Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty) at Harvard Medical School—a non-surgical, one-time intervention for lasting weight loss. With the rapid market proliferation of GLP-1 medications dominating headlines and ad spend, the company needed to drive differentiation with their unique approach while establishing brand awareness and category leadership with their innovative offering.

↳ Opportunity

Through a category analysis and customer interviews, we identified a clear opportunity: establish a new brand as innovation leader in weight care, positioning it as the superior alternative to GLP-1 and bariatric surgery. The strategy centered on the company’s core advantages—Expertise, Efficacy, Empathy and Experience—reflecting the unique combination of non-surgical simplicity with permanency of results, personalized care and empowering guidance, and the scientific credibility as inventors of ESG.

To manifest this position, we partnered on an extensive naming process, evolving the brand from Bariendo to Everself—a name that speaks to the enduring transformation patients experience on their path to healthy weight. The new brand identity is built around key principles of Relatable Simplicity, Focused Optimism, Intuitive Ease, and Transformative Rigor, all in service of helping people regain vitality.

We built a site which drives brand awareness, engagement, and evangelism for Everself’s ESG procedure in combination with a 12-month concierge weight care program that supports patients with a dedicated team of nutritionists, clinicians, and coaches. The brand campaign framework featured patient testimonials, supported by photo shoots and videography that surfaces life-changing outcomes through genuine stories—showing real people who have reclaimed healthy weight and vitality after other approaches had failed them.

↳ Outcome

Our work positioned Everself as category leader in innovative weight care, signaling the brand as a modern, people-centric, and science-backed care experience for those seeking life-lasting transformation.
