Intragastric Balloon

Gastric Balloon Procedure

The gastric balloon procedure is one of the efficient modern techniques for treating obesity. It is a simple procedure that does not require general anesthesia. This treatment reduces the amount of food you consume and helps you feel full faster.

In Turkey, as one of the leading centers for obesity treatment, the gastric balloon procedure takes approximately 20 minutes. It involves inserting a soft silicone balloon filled with air or saline solution into the stomach, partially filling it to reduce its capacity and accelerate the feeling of fullness.

The gastric balloon procedure leads to more than 10% loss of body weight in just 6 months. It is performed using medical endoscopy, without the need for major surgery like other obesity treatment techniques.

If you desire to lose excess weight quickly and without undergoing surgical procedures, the gastric balloon treatment may be the most suitable option for you.
