Why Choose the Stomach Balloon?

The stomach balloon is the revolutionary new simple way to lose weight and change your relationship with food forever.

It is simply inserted through your mouth, down your gullet and into your stomach. In our expert hands, it requires little or (usually) no sedation at all, and takes about ten minutes to place. Patients leave the Centre within an hour or so at most.

Very few patients need to take any time off work at all.

The stomach balloon is designed to induce weight loss by partially filling your stomach so that you get less hungry, feel fuller quicker, and importantly alter your personal relationship with food. It does so by utilising it alongside along a dedicated follow up programme.

The balloon remains in your stomach for 6 months, during which time most patients drop their BMI’s by up to 10 points.

After 6 months, removal of the balloon is as simple as its placement.

The stomach balloon programme at the National Gastric Balloon Centre is a safe, effective, proven, non-surgical, non-pharmaceutical alternative for the treatment of obesity. It requires no surgery or general anaesthetics whatsoever.

It's simple. It's safe. And it works!
