Gastric Balloon

A gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss treatment where a soft, silicone balloon is inserted into the stomach and filled with saline or gas to reduce stomach capacity. The balloon helps promote a feeling of fullness, so patients consume less food, aiding in weight loss. It is typically used for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, who have not been successful with diet and exercise alone. The procedure is temporary, usually lasting about six months, after which the balloon is removed.
