INTRA-GASTRIC BALLOON

In this procedure, a balloon is inserted inside the stomach with help of endoscope which is then filled with saline to assist you in weight loss. This limits how much you can eat and creates a sense of satiety early.

An intragastric balloon may be an option for you if:

It can be an option for people with BMI between 27.5 to 35 (Asian criteria)
You’re willing to commit to healthy lifestyle changes, get regular medical follow-up and participate in behavioral therapy
Patients who are unfit for Bariatric Surgery may at times opt for it

Advantages over Bariatric Surgery:

No cut is involved on abdomen
No cutting of stomach or intestine is involved
Chances of complications may be less
Less hospitalization is likely
Chances of malnutrition are less as compared to bypass procedures

Disadvantages over Bariatric Surgery:

Weight loss may not be as good
Resolution of co-morbidities may not be as good
Balloon has to be removed after 6 to 12 months and then anatomy is back to normal. So chances of weight regain may be higher
Some patients do not tolerate balloon well and ask to remove it within few days

  I got my friend’s weight loss surgery done at Star Hospital. We were impressed by Dr Ahluwalia’s clarity of thought on weight loss and Bariatric Surgery. We visited some other hospitals before and were always confused as their versions were very different but here we got answers to all our questions in a very clear way and my friend could gather courage to finally get his Bariatric Surgery done and start living a normal life again. Procedure went smooth as was told and we were out out of hospital very next day. Now we regret delaying this for years!
