Gastric Balloon in Turkey
Jumpstart your weight loss journey with a non-surgical gastric balloon procedure.
What is a Gastric Balloon?
A gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight loss procedure where a soft, silicone balloon is placed in your stomach through an endoscopic procedure. The balloon is filled with saline solution, taking up space in your stomach to help you feel full faster.
How It Works
The balloon reduces stomach capacity, helping you eat smaller portions and feel satisfied sooner. It's a temporary solution, typically remaining in place for 6-12 months, during which time you'll work with a nutritionist to develop healthy eating habits.
Benefits of Gastric Balloon
Gastric balloon offers a non-surgical option, no permanent changes to anatomy, reversible procedure, lower risk than surgery, and helps establish healthy eating patterns. It's ideal for those who need to lose weight before surgery or prefer a non-surgical approach.
