Gastric Balloon

The Gastric Balloon is a non-surgical, minimally invasive weight loss treatment that involves placing a soft silicone balloon in the stomach. This balloon creates a feeling of fullness, helping to control portion sizes, reduce food intake, and promote weight loss.

Consultation and Assessment

During your initial consultation, the surgeon will review your weight loss goals and medical history to determine if the Gastric Balloon is right for you. A personalized treatment plan will be created based on your BMI and other factors.

Procedure

The procedure is performed in the clinic under mild sedation. A deflated silicone balloon is inserted into the stomach through the mouth using an endoscope. Once in place, the balloon is filled with a sterile saline solution, expanding in the stomach. The procedure takes about 20-30 minutes, and most patients can go home the same day.

Post-Procedure and Follow-Up

After the balloon is placed, you’ll be monitored for a few hours in the clinic. You will receive post-procedure instructions, including dietary and lifestyle recommendations. The balloon remains in the stomach for about six months before being removed through an endoscopic procedure.

Results and Maintenance

The Gastric Balloon can lead to significant weight loss by helping you adjust to a reduced-calorie diet. Maintaining weight loss requires continued healthy lifestyle and dietary habits. Our clinic provides ongoing support to ensure successful and sustainable results.
