Gastric Balloon
The gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss procedure that involves placing a deflated balloon into the stomach, which is then inflated with a sterile saline solution. This balloon takes up space in the stomach, promoting a feeling of fullness and reducing food intake. It is commonly used for individuals struggling with obesity who want to lose weight before undergoing more invasive procedures or to jumpstart a lifestyle change. The gastric balloon typically remains in place for six months to a year, helping patients achieve their weight loss goals.
