Gastric balloon is a non-surgical solution for obesity to help patients with weight loss by reducing the size of the stomach. Weight loss surgeons insert a balloon into the stomach to limit the amount of food that can be eaten and help people loose excess weight if diet and exercise alone have failed.
All it takes is inserting a balloon into the stomach through the throat and then filling the balloon with liquid. Unlike gastric-bypass surgery, gastric ballooning is a quick, relatively painless and affordable way to help obese people lose weight. But the Food and Drug Administration has not approved the gastric-ballooning procedure, and it is almost nonexistent in the United States.
