Gastric Baloon

What is Gastric Balloon Surgery?
Gastric Balloon surgery is a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure for weight loss. It involves placing a silicone balloon in the stomach to create a feeling of fullness and reduce food intake.

Is Gastric Balloon Right for Me?
Gastric Balloon surgery is suitable for individuals who have a BMI between 30 and 40 and have not achieved significant weight loss through diet and exercise alone. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if this procedure is appropriate for you.

How Does the Procedure Work?
During Gastric Balloon surgery, a deflated silicone balloon is inserted into the stomach through the mouth using an endoscope. Once in place, the balloon is filled with saline solution or air, expanding it to create a feeling of fullness and promote portion control.

What Can I Expect After Gastric Balloon Surgery?
After Gastric Balloon surgery, you may experience an initial period of discomfort or nausea. However, these symptoms usually subside within a few days. The balloon remains in the stomach for a specific period, typically six months, after which it is removed. During this time, you will work with a healthcare team to make lifestyle changes and adopt healthier eating habits.
