When to Consider Non-Surgical Weight Loss
Ignoring excess weight can lead to health issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Non-surgical weight loss techniques, such as the intragastric balloon, are ideal for people who want to lose weight but are not ready or eligible for surgery. If you have been struggling with obesity and traditional methods like diet and exercise haven’t given you the results you need, this minimally invasive option may be worth considering.
These procedures are especially helpful for patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 27–35 who may not qualify for bariatric surgery, or for those looking for a less invasive alternative. They can also be used as a supportive step before surgery to help reduce risks in patients with very high BMI.
Choosing a non-surgical technique early allows you to take control of your weight safely, avoid complications, and build healthier habits for long-term success.

Frequently Asked Questions
Non-surgical weight loss treatment includes minimally invasive procedures like the intragastric balloon that help patients lose weight without undergoing surgery. These treatments are combined with diet and lifestyle guidance for better long-term results.
The intragastric balloon is generally recommended for individuals with a BMI between 27-35 who have not achieved sufficient weight loss through diet and exercise alone and may not qualify for bariatric surgery.
The procedure is usually well tolerated and performed using an endoscope without cuts or stitches. Some patients may experience mild nausea or discomfort for a few days after placement, which can be managed with medication.
Weight loss results vary from person to person depending on diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes. Most patients experience significant weight loss within the six-month treatment period.
The intragastric balloon typically remains in the stomach for about six months and is then removed through a simple endoscopic procedure.
Most patients can resume their normal daily activities within 24-48 hours after the procedure, depending on their recovery and comfort level.
