We’ll explore the benefits of ORBERA and determine if it’s right for you. So let’s dive into everything you need about ORBERA gastric balloon in Dubai!

What is the ORBERA non-surgical balloon?

The ORBERA non-surgical balloon is a weight loss treatment involving inserting a deflated silicone balloon into your stomach using an endoscope. Once the balloon is in place, it’s filled with saline solution to take up space and help you feel full faster.

The ORBERA weight loss balloon procedure is a non-surgical, minimally invasive approach designed to assist individuals in achieving their weight loss goals. It involves the temporary placement of a silicone balloon in the stomach, which helps create a feeling of fullness and reduces hunger.

Placement of the ORBERA balloon

Placement of the ORBERA balloon is typically done during a short outpatient procedure. The deflated balloon is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach using an endoscope. After being placed, the ORBERA balloon is filled up with a sterile saline solution, expanding to about the size of a grapefruit. The procedure typically takes 10 -15 minutes; most patients can return home the same day.

6 Months with ORBERA balloon or 12 months with orbera365

Over the next six months or 12 months as per type of balloon you choose , the ORBERA balloon remains in the stomach, acting as a tool to help individuals make changes to their eating habits and lifestyle. The presence of the balloon helps restrict the amount of food consumed, leading to a reduced calorie intake. It also provides a sense of early satiety, making it easier for patients to adopt healthier eating patterns and portion control.

Patients typically work closely with healthcare professionals, including dietitians and psychologists, to develop personalized diet and exercise plans during this period. Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor progress, provide support, and make necessary weight loss program adjustments.

Removal of the ORBERA balloon

As six months are over, the ORBERA balloon is removed similarly to its placement. Under sedation, an endoscope gently extracts the deflated balloon through the mouth. The removal procedure is relatively quick, typically taking around 20 minutes, and patients can often resume their regular activities shortly after.

What are the benefits of the ORBERA balloon?

The ORBERA non-surgical balloon is a weight loss solution that has recently gained popularity. This innovative approach to weight loss offers several benefits over traditional weight loss methods.

• The ORBERA non-surgical balloon is minimally invasive and does not require surgery or incisions. Unlike bariatric surgeries such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, there are no scars left behind after the procedure.
• The ORBERA balloon is adjustable and customizable to meet individual patient needs. The balloon size can be adjusted depending on how much weight a patient wants to lose or how long they want it to stay in place.
• Patients who undergo this procedure report feeling full faster and for longer periods. This helps them reduce their food intake without feeling deprived or hungry.
• The ORBERA non-surgical balloon is an effective tool for jumpstarting significant weight loss quickly. Patients typically lose 20-30% of their excess body weight with proper diet and exercise within six months.

These benefits make ORBERA an attractive option for individuals looking for a safe and effective way to achieve sustainable weight loss without surgery.

Who is a candidate for the ORBERA balloon?

The ORBERA non-surgical balloon is an effective weight-loss tool, but it’s not for everyone. So, who is a suitable candidate for this procedure?
