If you have tried several diets without getting the results you wanted, you have probably heard of the gastric balloon. It is one of the treatments people ask about most in our weight loss and nutrition unit, so here are the essentials.
What is a gastric balloon?
It is a non-surgical method for treating overweight and obesity. A silicone balloon is placed in the stomach, so you eat less and feel full much sooner.
How is it placed?
Placement takes just over 20-30 minutes and is done without surgery or a hospital stay.
Who is it for?
For overweight or obese patients who have already tried other diets and want to lose weight and improve their health without going hungry. As with any medical treatment, the decision is made after an individual assessment.
The balloon needs support
At the clinic we combine it with personalised nutritional guidance and weekly check-ups, so that your habits improve effectively and for the long term.
