A soft balloon is placed in the stomach. Once in place, the balloon is filled with saline to help limit the amount of food you eat. The procedure is non-surgical and takes about 30 minutes and most people go home the same day. The balloon will stay in place for six months.
Just like its placement, the balloon is removed through a quick, non-surgical procedure. The next six months provides additional diet and exercise coaching to continue your weight-loss journey. When the yearlong program is over, you will have learned healthy lifestyle choices that can help you continue to manage your weight.
