What is Gastric Balloon?

A gastric balloon, also known as an intragastric balloon, is a non-surgical weight loss procedure that involves placing a silicone balloon in the stomach to reduce its capacity. This helps individuals feel full faster and therefore eat less.

The procedure is typically done through an endoscope, which is a thin tube with a camera on one end that is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach. Once the balloon is in place, it is filled with either saline solution or air, depending on the type of balloon used.

Gastric balloons are designed for people who have struggled with diet and exercise but have not been able to achieve significant weight loss. It can also be recommended for those who are not eligible candidates for weight loss surgery.

The procedure is temporary and the balloon is typically removed after 6-12 months. During this time, patients work closely with a healthcare team to create a customized diet and exercise plan that will help them achieve long-term weight loss success.
