Intragastric Balloon

The Intra-gastric Balloon is a simple tool that is designed to give you the extra help you need to adjust to a healthier lifestyle. This type of weight loss treatment can help you lose weight without invasive surgery.

It is used as a temporary measure either to kick-start your weight loss or, if the amount of a person’s excess weight makes the more invasive treatments too risky, it may be used to help a person lose some weight prior to definite surgery e.g. gastric band, sleeve or bypass.
