Gastric Balloon in Colombia
Gastric Balloon in Colombia is an endoscopic procedure that involves inserting a silicone balloon with a capacity of approximately 500 cc into the stomach.
 
It is a minimally invasive procedure that keeps a part of the stomach full so that the person feels full and has less of an appetite.
 
The balloon remains in the patient for 6 to 8 months and is then removed using the same technique. The procedure is ambulatory and does not require hospitalization.
 
The treatment includes accompaniment by a nutritionist and psychologist.
