What is a gastric balloon?

It is a free-surgery procedure in which a silicone balloon is introduced into your stomach and aerated with a high concentration of dissolved salts. It is perfect for losing weight since it gives you a satisfying feeling sooner and longer.

A gastric balloon is an ideal treatment for patients who want to avoid surgery due to being overweight or want to prevent it and haven’t undergone any weight loss intervention. The suitable Body Mass Index (BMI) for this procedure is between 30 and 40 in patients, and it is convenient for those who require losing about 30 percent of their extra body weight.

5 Gastric Balloon Benefits

  1. Surgery is not necessary. This is one of the top benefits of the Gastric Balloon Tijuana procedure. It is quick and straightforward to place orally, either by endoscopy or by ingesting a pill. Some balloons will need anesthesia to locate. However, once the soft balloon has been inflated with saline and a 2-hour recovery period ends, most patients are discharged home.
  2. It is short-term and can be removed. It is pretended to be for six months in a patient’s stomach before being eliminated. Nevertheless, it can be taken out at any time if needed.
  3. More affordable than surgery. Gastric Balloon Tijuana is secure, trouble-free, and low-price, with packages starting at $2,690 USD for the balloon placement and $900 for the elimination with a minimum waiting time.
  4. Excellent alternative even if not eligible for surgery. To undergo a Gastric Bypass surgery, many health centers and insurance companies will consider patients who have exceedingly high BMIs and critical weight-related health problems. Despite that, people with lower BMIs who have the least total weight they want to lose can be ideal candidates for this procedure.
  5. Effective weight loss. Thanks to Gastric Balloon Tijuana, losing between 20 to 50 pounds can be a reality. Of course, the weight loss rests on your initial weight and on committing to keeping healthy habits such as regular exercise and a balanced diet for at least 12 months.

PREPARATION

It would be best not to drink anything six hours before the procedure and not ingest it for twelve hours after the procedure. Following this advice will be crucial since you may become light-headed and nauseous after expanding the balloon.

It is a 20-minute process and depending on the type of balloon you select; you may require a mild sedative or anesthetic.

Additionally, having transportation through Medical Tourism Tijuana will help you be relaxed and worry-free about reaching your hospital or the hotel after the process, thanks to our personalized transportation service. That will contribute to having an on-time and secure experience.

Also, your health and wellness expert may prescribe some acid reflux and anti-nausea medication. Please, make sure that you have these available when returning home.

RECOVERY TIME

Even though feeling discomfort a few days to a couple of weeks after the balloon is located is usual, you can contact your health and wellness expert when feeling something bizarre or painful.

During the first week, most patients do not experience hunger and may feel like throwing up with food intake. It is during this period that weight loss can be remarkable. Men may leave behind 8 to 15 pounds, while women may lose about 4 to 8 pounds.

In the second week, you may be recovering slowly from your appetite, although you will feel complete with a small amount of food. Nauseousness, acid reflux, and hiccups will indicate that you are eating fast or in large quantities.

From week 3 to 6, you will notice that your food tolerance will grow, and you will start to feel hungrier. However, it would be best to strive to eat slowly, keep track of what you consume, and pay close attention to any discomfort signs.

You should keep losing weight slower during weeks 7 to 12. Hence, focusing on healthy and nutritious food and an exercise routine will contribute to maximizing your weight loss. Jogging or walking would help tremendously if you can’t arrange to go to the gym.

Then, throughout weeks 12 to 26, not neglecting your quality exercise program and nutrient-rich food will be crucial for losing weight. These habits will bring out the most outstanding results as you look fantastic and feel renewed and full of energy.
