Gastric Balloon

Gastric balloon placement is an endoscopic method used in bariatric surgery to reduce excess weight. Ballooning of the stomach is that a balloon made of medical silicone is placed in the stomach, which is filled with saline solution. The filled intragastric balloon takes up a lot of space, thus reducing the amount of food consumed and accelerates the onset of satiety. The balloon in the stomach, the price of which is listed on our website, is an excellent method of combating overweight.

Indications for the installation of an intragastric balloon

Installation of a balloon in a stomach has a number of indications:

body mass index over 30 kg / m2;
lack of the desired effect of dieting, exercise and other classic methods of combating overweight;
the initial stage for weight loss and the formation of new eating habits with a BMI> 50.

The balloon is installed in the stomach after the initial consultation with the surgeon and the necessary preoperative examination (laboratory tests, FGDS, ultrasound). Gastric ballooning (the price will be calculated individually by the coordinating doctor) is a minimally invasive method and does not require long-term rehabilitation.

Method of installation of an intragastric cylinder

The gastric balloon is installed within half an hour, the intervention is comfortable and painless, and rehabilitation after manipulation is minimal.

How to install a gastric balloon:

• the patient is anesthetized and is under the supervision of an anesthesiologist;
• the surgeon preliminarily examines the stomach and esophagus with an endoscope;
• the balloon is inserted by endoscopic method in a folded form and remains in the stomach;
• the cylinder is filled with a special saline solution;
• the gastric balloon takes the form of a filled ball.

After 6 months, the gastric balloon for weight loss must be replaced with a new one or removed permanently. This is due to the fact that the stomach balloon is constantly in an aggressive intragastric environment, thins and wears out. During this period of time there is a loss of up to 30% of excess body weight, new eating habits and diet are formed, lifestyle is modified. Unlike grueling diets, radical surgeries and extreme weight loss techniques, the weight loss balloon helps to effectively lose weight with minimal health risks.
