Gastric Balloon
The Gastric Balloon is a soft silicone sack which is inserted through the mouth into your stomach. It is then filled or "inflated" with saline and stays in place in your stomach for a period of 6 months. The effect of the balloon device is essentially to make you "feel full".
As you eat less, the weight will start to come off while you re-educate your body in the principles of good eating. While the balloon is in place, you have a tool to help you learn the habits of healthy living so that you can continue your weight loss once the balloon is removed.

Gastric Balloon
The Gastric Balloon (also known as The BIB™ SYSTEM) is a soft silicone sack which is inserted through the mouth into your stomach. It is then filled with saline and stays in your stomach to make you "feel full". It is a supervised programme where you'll receive the necessary dietary and exercise advice to succeed in your weight loss . As you eat less, the weight will start to come off while you re-educate your body in the principles of good eating.
The balloon is completely harmless once in place - it's a tried and tested, non-surgical, non-drug treatment that offers a helping hand to the thousands of people who have failed to lose weight with diet, exercise or medication.
The gastric balloon will only work in combination with your own efforts in a sensible diet and portion control. It is removed after 7 months, after which time, you and your body will have adapted to the new regime and can continue the weight loss unaided.
It helps overweight people take control of their weight before surgery becomes the only option.
Benefits to the patient

The benefits of this regime are that it is a non-surgical alternative to surgery, suitable for those who are classed as overweight or mildly obese – i.e. at the lower end of the scale. Digestion is not affected by the balloon and it is completely reversible - the balloon can be deflated (i.e. the saline extracted) and removed at any time if required.
