Obalon Balloon for Marvelous Life-changing Results!

Los Angeles Obalon Balloon System

DO YOU QUALIFY?

Obalon is an intragastric balloon system that is swallowable and designed for significant weight loss. The procedure is ideal for obese individuals with a BMI of 30 to 40 who have tried to lose weight through conventional diet and exercise but cannot succeed.

The gastric balloon system will only work if you commit to adopting a moderate-intensity diet and exercise program. After six months, your balloon will be removed.

You will be a good candidate for the Obalon balloon if you are an adult with a body mass index between 30 and 40.

WHAT IS OBALON?

Obalon balloon system

The Obalon gastric balloon system helps you lose weight by taking up space within your stomach. This causes you to eat less and feel fuller faster. This is the perfect combination for weight loss and developing a healthier relationship with food. Three balloons are individually placed for a 6-month nonsurgical treatment, combined with a supervised nutrition and exercise program for optimal weight loss. The Obalon balloon is a device for weight loss. It is the first non-surgical intragastric balloon system that is easily swallowed and requires no sedation for placement.

The Obalon intragastric balloon system assists with weight loss by acquiring space in your stomach. This forces you to eat less. A total of three buoyant balloons are placed in your stomach for the entire treatment period of six months. The treatment is often combined with a medically supervised diet and workout regimen for long-term weight loss.  Clinical trial results and actual use have been very promising.

What to Expect

Before your procedure, Dr. Moein will review and discuss your medical history, discuss your current health habits, and order all necessary lab tests to make sure Obalon is the right choice for you. Having realistic expectations for your results and discussing them thoroughly with Dr. Moein before choosing the Obalon treatment is important.

The Obalon balloons are individually placed by swallowing a capsule about the size of a vitamin. This capsule has a microcatheter attached to it that is used to inflate the balloon once it is inside the stomach. Each balloon placement typically takes about 10 minutes. Dr. Moein and his staff will verify the capsule is located in the stomach with an x-ray. Once the capsule containing the balloon is dissolved, the balloon is filled with gas, and the microcatheter is removed.

During the 6-month placement of your Obalon balloons, you will work closely with Dr. Moein and his support staff to create and establish healthy eating and exercise habits. During this time, you will also retrain your brain to recognize better portion sizes since you can’t eat the same amount of food as you could before the balloon.

At the end of the 6-month treatment period, the balloons are removed. Dr. Moein will use a light sedative, and you will remain conscious as he removes all three balloons. The endoscopic (meaning video-guided, no incisions) procedure takes approximately 15 minutes. Most patients return to normal activities once the sedation has worn off.

Recovery and Results

Because Obalon balloon placement is a nonsurgical procedure that does not require sedation, most patients return to their normal activities immediately.

You must complement the Obalon intragastric weight loss system with healthy lifestyle changes to maximize your weight loss and sustain a healthy long-term weight. During the 6-month program, Dr. Moein and his team will work closely with you to monitor your progress and provide continuous support with your weight loss routine.

Obalon is a weight loss tool. To make permanent changes and maintain your results, it is up to you to commit to modifying your behavior and lifestyle habits even after the balloons are removed. However, if you do, you should see long-lasting results.
