Gastric balloon in Irvine features no stomach cutting, stapling, or banding. It helps you lose three times the weight compared to diet and exercise alone when paired with our 12-month medically managed support program to keep the weight off for long-term results. Orbera® is a great way to jump-start a new, healthier lifestyle!
Book an appointment with us to discuss your weight loss goals and create a personalized program. We will assist you in designing a diet plan that suits your needs after the procedure and guide you in developing healthier habits for the future.
The stomach is retrained by inserting the Orbera® balloon and inflating it with a saline solution, causing the patient to feel full and satisfied more frequently. This helps to regulate portions and prevent overeating, making weight loss much more manageable.
Your body needs time to adapt to the balloon after it is inserted. While you may experience some discomfort initially, our Athēnix surgeon can provide medication to alleviate any symptoms. Please immediately contact us if you encounter severe pain, nausea, or vomiting. During the first three months, you can anticipate rapid weight loss, which can be further improved by adopting healthy eating habits and increasing your level of physical activity.
The balloon helps your body become accustomed to consuming smaller food portions, and it's crucial to concentrate on developing healthy habits during this period. These habits will aid in maintaining weight loss once the balloon is removed. Our team will work closely with you to optimize your daily nutrition, diet, and exercise routine for optimal results.
After six months, the balloon is removed, signifying the culmination of all your hard work. Your body has been effectively reprogrammed to recognize the feeling of fullness, and you have integrated more nutrient-dense meals into your diet. These favorable modifications aid in maintaining a healthy weight and pursuing additional fitness goals.
