Muğla Gastric Balloon, What is Gastric Balloon Treatment? Gastric balloon treatment is applied to patients with a body mass index of 28-34. In this procedure, a water-filled balloon made of soft silicone is placed in the patient's stomach. This balloon gives the patient a feeling of fullness. In cases where obesity surgery cannot be performed due to excess weight, it is a procedure that can be performed to help the patient lose weight in a short time before being taken to surgery. At the same time, it is a very successful application as an alternative weight loss procedure for those who are not positive about sleeve gastrectomy surgery.

How is Gastric Balloon Treatment Applied?

With gastric balloon application, a 6-month or annual balloon is placed into the stomach by endoscopic method. This procedure creates a feeling of fullness by taking up space in the patient's stomach with a balloon. There are two different types of balloons. While a fixed volume swallowable gastric balloon is placed in the stomach and no volumetric adjustment can be made thereafter, the adjustable gastric balloon can be adjusted according to the patient's stomach volume. These balloons can be inflated and deflated according to their weight loss capacity and rate. Patients can lose 25-30% of their excess weight. Patients can lose an average of 10–40 kilograms. The balloon needs to be removed after about a year. Removal of the balloon is also achieved by endoscopic procedure.
