Gastric Balloon Before & Afters

Key Benefits of
Gastric Balloon

A gastric balloon is a non-surgical, temporary weight reduction procedure designed to help individuals lose weight safely and effectively. It involves placing a soft silicone balloon inside the stomach to limit food intake and promote a feeling of fullness, making it easier to reduce portion sizes and calorie consumption. This minimally invasive procedure is an excellent option for individuals who want to kickstart their weight loss journey without requiring  more invasive surgical methods.

The gastric balloon works by:

  • Occupying space in the stomach, reducing its capacity.
  • Encouraging slower digestion and more extended periods of satiety.
  • Supporting healthier eating habits and lifestyle changes.

Unlike other weight reduction surgeries, the gastric balloon is temporary, remaining in the stomach for approximately six months before being removed. This time frame allows patients to establish new habits and achieve significant weight loss results. It’s often combined with a structured diet and exercise program to maximize long-term success.

The gastric balloon is ideal for individuals with a BMI of 27 or higher who have struggled with traditional weight reduction methods. It’s also a great option for those looking for a less invasive alternative to procedures like gastric sleeve or gastric bypass.

With HWBazaar, you’ll receive personalized care from experienced specialists, ensuring a safe and effective experience tailored to your unique goals. Let us help you take the first step towards a healthier future!

The gastric balloon procedure is a quick, non-surgical method carefully designed to prioritize your comfort and safety throughout. Taking only about 20-30 minutes, the procedure is performed under light sedation. Before the procedure begins, you’ll undergo a thorough medical evaluation to confirm you’re a suitable candidate. During the process, a deflated balloon is gently inserted through your mouth using an endoscope—a thin, flexible tube with a camera—ensuring precision placement. Once positioned in your stomach, the balloon is inflated with sterile saline or gas, reducing your stomach's capacity to help you feel fuller with less food. Afterward, you’ll be monitored briefly and can typically return home the same day, beginning your journey toward effective, sustainable weight reduction.

Balloon Removal
After six months, the balloon is removed through the same endoscopic process. During this period, patients adopt healthier eating habits, which contribute to long-term weight reduction success.

A gastric balloon offers a transformative, non-surgical solution for individuals seeking effective and affordable weight loss. Unlike surgical procedures, it involves minimal risks and downtime, allowing patients to return to normal routines shortly after the procedure. Designed as a temporary solution, the balloon is removed after six months, making it an excellent choice for those looking for a short-term boost to their weight loss journey. With significant weight reduction, patients often experience improved health, increased energy, and enhanced self-confidence. 

Our skilled, board-certified bariatric surgeons leverage cutting-edge techniques and advanced technology to perform gastric balloon procedures, providing a minimally invasive option for effective weight loss and improved overall health.
