Ballooning weight loss treatment, also known as intragastric balloon therapy, is a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure designed to assist individuals struggling with obesity or significant weight issues offered by MASSH. It involves the insertion of a soft, flexible balloon into the stomach, which is then filled with a sterile saline solution. The balloon occupies space in the stomach, reducing its capacity and thereby promoting a feeling of fullness. This process helps patients control their appetite and make healthier food choices, ultimately leading to weight loss.
The balloon is typically placed using an endoscopic procedure, which is a non-invasive method that requires no cuts or stitches. The treatment is designed for patients who have not been able to lose weight through traditional methods, such as diet and exercise, and who may not be ready for more invasive surgeries like gastric bypass.
The procedure begins with a comprehensive consultation with our qualified healthcare professional to determine whether the patient is an appropriate candidate for the treatment. If approved, the balloon is inserted into the stomach using an endoscopic approach under mild sedation. Once the balloon is in place, it is inflated with a sterile saline solution, and the patient is monitored for a short period to ensure the balloon is securely positioned.
The procedure typically takes around 20 to 30 minutes and does not require any incisions or overnight hospital stays. Most patients are able to resume normal activities within a few days, although some may experience mild discomfort or nausea initially, which usually resolves within a few days. The balloon typically remains in place for six months before it is removed through a similar endoscopic procedure.
