The stomach is reconditioned by introducing the Orbera® balloon, which is then filled with saline. This leads to more frequent feelings of fullness and satisfaction for the patient. This, in turn, regulates portion sizes and prevents overeating, significantly simplifying weight loss.
The initial adjustment period to the balloon may cause some discomfort. However, our skilled Athēnix surgeon can provide medication to alleviate any symptoms. Please contact us immediately if you experience severe pain, nausea, or vomiting. The first three months typically yield rapid weight loss, which can be further bolstered by embracing healthy eating habits and increasing physical activity levels.
This phase is essential for your body to acclimate to smaller food portions. It is crucial to focus on cultivating healthy habits during this period, which will assist in maintaining weight loss once the balloon is removed. Our team will work closely with you to optimize your daily nutrition, diet, and exercise regimen for optimal outcomes.
Six months after insertion, the balloon is removed, symbolizing the culmination of your hard work. Your body is now proficient in recognizing the sensation of fullness, and you have integrated more nutrient-rich meals into your diet. These positive changes help sustain a healthy weight and pursue additional fitness objectives.
