Swallable gastric balloon
This gastric pill balloon is a soft balloon that can be easily swallowed and placed in the stomach. It is the only gastric balloon that does not require surgery, endoscopy, or anesthesia for placement or removal.
Who is it indicated for?
Patients who need to lose between 8 kg and 15 kg.
How is it placed?
The patient swallows a capsule containing the deflated Balloon, attached to a thin tube. Once it is confirmed, through an X-ray, that the balloon is in the stomach, it is filled with saline solution through the catheter. The placement is done during a 15-minute visit to the doctor. After filling, the patient can go home without any dizziness.
Adverse effects?
The first few days of the ingestible balloon are similar to those of gastric balloons placed by endoscopy: the stomach takes approximately 48 hours to adjust to the foreign body. Nausea and discomfort may occur, which are treated with specific medication and disappear within a few days.
How is it removed?
After about 3 months, a valve with a timer on the balloon is opened, emptying it, and then it passes through the gastrointestinal tract without the need for any extraction procedure.
Non-surgical and non-invasive
The gastric pill balloon is easily swallowed, guided to the stomach and inflated.
Lower risks than in surgery
Weight loss in a short time.
No anesthesia, fast recovery
The placement takes place during a 15-minute outpatient visit.
Easy, natural removal
After approximately 16 weeks, the Balloon deflates and passes naturally

12-Month Balloon
If you have been looking for a safe and non-surgical method to start your weight loss and regain a healthy lifestyle, the 12 month balloon is an effective, reversible and less expensive alternative to weight loss surgery for overweight or obese people.
How does it work?
This is a gastric balloon filled with medical grade saline solution that rests in the stomach cavity and decreases appetite by occupying approximately one third of the stomach volume.
Furthermore, with the gastric balloon in place, the stomach empties more slowly, maintaining the feeling of fullness for longer.
How is it placed?
The balloon is inserted in an outpatient procedure that lasts about 20 minutes and is performed under sedation. No incisions or hospital admission are needed. The patient will be discharged and home a few hours later.
The balloon is a tool that helps you lose weight and with which you will obtain better results.
The amount of weight you lose will depend on how closely you follow your diet and adopt long-term lifestyle changes. With the 12-month balloon average weight loss is of 16 kg at 6 months and 25 kg after 12 months. Greater weight losses have been achieved depending on your initial weight and motivation.
Endoscopic, Non-surgical treatment
