The gastric balloon is an alternative non-surgical treatment for weight loss. This helps you lose weight by limiting how much you can eat and making you feel fuller faster. Gastric balloons are used to be placed under anesthesia with the help of the endoscopy. And the balloon needs to be removed after 6 months or one year -depending on the material of the balloon- again under anesthesia with the help of endoscopy. We are the main center for ELIPSE BALLOON in Antalya. So, let us tell you more about Elipse Balloon and tell you the reasons why we prefer this balloon instead of other conventional ones. The Elipse Balloon, a swallowable gastric balloon not requiring sedation, anesthesia, or endoscopy. Elipse Balloon is folded in a vegetarian capsule and attached to a thin catheter via a self-sealing valve. Patients swallow the capsule; we confirm the position with an X-ray study in the stomach before filling the balloon with 550 ml of water. After the filling is completed we verify with another X-ray of the filled balloon. The catheter is disconnected from the balloon by pulling it out. A bio-absorbable film covers the valve and degrades slowly over 4 months. Once degraded, the valve is exposed and the balloon empties spontaneously. It is then expected to pass through the pylorus into the intestines and then naturally excreted. This means this balloon also not requiring another intervention for removal. Depending on our experience with Elipse Balloon, we can say it is simple and practical. Regarding tolerance, it has better results. Comparing the weight loss results in one year it has similar results. So why should you carry a foreign body in your stomach for one year without getting any extra benefit? We believe also, it has advantages for people travelling to another country for treatment. You need only 20 minutes. Then you can enjoy your holiday and no need to travel back after six months or one year.
