Obesity is one of the most prevalent health issues today. Excess weight not only poses aesthetic concerns but also leads to various health problems. Gastric balloon emerges as a highly effective method in combating obesity.
A gastric balloon is an inflatable device made of silicone or polymer material that is placed in the stomach using an endoscopic procedure. The balloon, when placed in the stomach, reduces its volume, leading to less food intake and a quicker feeling of fullness. This accelerates the weight loss process and increases the chance of permanent weight loss.
Before the gastric balloon procedure, it is essential to strictly follow the instructions given by your doctor. These instructions include adhering to a specific diet program, undergoing health checks, and undergoing the tests recommended by your doctor before the surgery.
During the postoperative period of the gastric balloon procedure, it is important to change your eating habits according to your doctor’s recommendations. Additionally, it is necessary to cope with side effects such as nausea, vomiting, associated with the presence of the balloon, and not to neglect regular check-ups.
There are some risks associated with gastric balloon procedure. These include side effects such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, displacement, or rupture of the balloon. These risks are generally low and can be managed by your doctor.
The cost of gastric balloon procedure varies depending on several factors. These factors include the location of the hospital, the experience of the doctor, the techniques used, and the postoperative support services. Generally, pricing is determined after a detailed evaluation, and payment plans may be offered.
