Swallowable Gastric Balloon – Non-Surgical Weight Loss Solution
Swallowable gastric balloon is a non-surgical, non-invasive solution to help patients manage obesity and adopt healthier eating habits. The device is swallowed in capsule form and expands inside the stomach, creating a feeling of fullness. It is ideal for individuals with a BMI over 27 who want to lose weight without surgery, endoscopy, or anesthesia.
Key Features
- Swallowed as a capsule, no surgery required
- No endoscopy or anesthesia needed
- Self-deflates and passes naturally after 16 weeks
- Promotes portion control and early satiety
- Clinically tested and CE certified
How It Works
Once the swallowable gastric balloon capsule reaches the stomach, it is filled with liquid through a thin catheter. The catheter is then removed, and the balloon remains in the stomach to occupy space. Over 16 weeks, the balloon helps reduce appetite and food intake. After this period, it deflates and is naturally excreted by the body.
Who Is It For?
This solution is best suited for patients who are overweight (BMI 27–35), or for those who are not suitable candidates for bariatric surgery. It is also ideal for people who want to jumpstart a healthy lifestyle without invasive intervention.
