  • What does it involve? There are several types of gastric balloon available.  At Healthier Weight we use the most thoroughly researched and tested device - the BioEnterics Intragastric Balloon (BIB™).  In what follows, we use the terms gastric balloon and BIB™ interchangeably. 
  • Benefits of a Gastric Balloon The health benefits of the BIB™ are those associated with any method of weight loss, including an improvement in diabetes, hypertension (raised blood pressure) and sleep apnoea.  There are also major improvements in mobility and self-esteem. 
  • What are the risks? The procedure itself is simple, and serious complications are uncommon.  Read about any reported complications in the scientific literature
  • Is the Gastric Balloon suitable for me? If you have tried every diet and weight-loss programme without success, but would rather avoid conventional surgery, the gastric balloon may be the option for you.
  • Our aftercare package. Even though a gastric balloon is not a surgical procedure, you do need to be very careful in the first couple of weeks following balloon insertion.
