Gastric Balloon Surgery
Gastric Balloons (sometimes called Intragastric Balloons) are one of the newer forms of weight loss surgery. Unlike most other types it is a temporary aid to help moderately obese patients lose weight as it is only in place for a maximum of six months before being removed .
The Balloon itself is made of silicone and is inserted via the mouth into the stomach using an endoscopic procedure. It is then filled with air or saline solution. The procedure takes about ten to twenty minutes and little or no sedation is required. Because of this most people only have to take a few days off work to recover and some even return the next day. However it's best to avoid strenuous exercise for two months following the surgery.
