What is SPATZ Adjustable Gastric Balloon Treatment?

SPATZ adjustable gastric balloon treatment is a surgical procedure that involves placing a soft, smooth, and durable balloon made of silicon inside the stomach. This procedure aims to help you lose weight by limiting how much you can eat and making you feel full with less food. 

The adjustable balloon is generally recommended by healthcare providers when other non-surgical weight loss methods, such as exercise, have been ineffective. If you have a BMI of 27 or above and have no history of gastrointestinal surgery, a gastric balloon may be an effective, viable, and better option for you.

Get significant health and body shape and be free from excessive weight gain with advanced SPATZ adjustable gastric balloon treatment in India.

What Happens in an SPATZ Adjustable Gastric Balloon Treatment?

The procedure for SPATZ adjustable gastric balloon treatment begins with a physical/online consultation. During the consultation, the healthcare provider will check your eligibility and discuss your weight-loss goals to understand if the adjustable balloon program is right for you. Some routine tests may be conducted to check your eligibility.

In a SPATZ adjustable balloon procedure, the adjustable gastric balloon is inserted into the stomach under the effect of anesthesia and by the process of gastroscopy. This entire process does not last for more than 20 minutes, and once the balloon is filled. The procedure is now complete, and the balloon is successfully placed in your stomach. 

After the procedure, you will be observed for a short period to ensure there are no immediate complications. Your doctor will likely provide post-procedure care instructions, including dietary guidelines and follow-up appointments. If you have further questions regarding the procedure, you can also contact us at Pristyn Care and book a consultation with highly experienced gastric balloon doctors in India.

Our team of expert dieticians helps connect your Health Tracker Watch, Connected Scale, and the App so that both the assigned dietician and you can monitor your weight loss progression over the course of 6 months. The assigned dietician engages and helps the patient regularly with diet selection and other lifestyle changes to aid weight loss. 

How to prepare for an SPATZ Adjustable Gastric Balloon Treatment?

Are weight loss injections a suitable alternative to bariatric surgery?
