Gastric balloon procedure at Al Manara Clinic
For individuals seeking an effective, non-surgical solution for weight loss, the gastric balloon procedure at Al Manara Clinic provides a safe and minimally invasive alternative. This treatment is designed to help patients reduce portion sizes, control appetite, and jumpstart healthy weight-loss habits—all without surgery.
Our medical team guides you through every step of the process, ensuring comfort, safety, and a tailored plan that fits your lifestyle.
How Does a Gastric Balloon Work?
A gastric balloon is a soft, inflatable medical device that is placed inside the stomach during a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure. Once positioned, the balloon is filled with sterile saline or gas, allowing it to partially occupy space in the stomach. This reduced stomach capacity helps you feel full more quickly, decreases hunger, and limits the amount of food you can comfortably eat, supporting gradual and controlled weight loss.
The gastric balloon works best when combined with dietary guidance and lifestyle changes, as it encourages portion control and promotes mindful eating habits over time.
Key advantages of the gastric balloon procedure include:
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive, with no incisions required
- A quick outpatient procedure, typically completed within 20–30 minutes
- Minimal recovery time, allowing a fast return to daily activities
- Helps jumpstart weight loss and build momentum toward long-term goals
- Supports the development of healthier eating habits and improved portion control
Overall, the gastric balloon is a temporary, supportive tool designed to help individuals adopt sustainable lifestyle changes and achieve meaningful weight loss in a safe and effective way.
