Procedure

• Weight loss procedures help people dealing with
  weight issues to achieve their weight loss goals.
  The obalon weight loss procedure is one such
  non-invasive procedure where A patient swallows A
  small pill (deflated obalon balloon), which is
  suspended by A fine tube. If you too are facing
  weight issues and would like to know more about
  the procedure, here are some helpful answers to
  frequently asked questions about the obalon
  weight loss procedure.

What does the procedure involve?

• Once the Obalon balloon is swallowed and placed
  correctly in the stomach, the doctors fill gas in
  the balloon through the tube. This non-invasive
  process does not need sedation and takes
  approximately 15 minutes at the doctors office
  with the help of an x-ray. The second pill is
  swallowed about two weeks after the first, and
  the last balloon at least two weeks later. The
  balloons are removed within 6 months.

Who is eligible for the procedure?

• Once you have decided to go for a weight loss
  surgery / procedure, the next big question is
  whether you are eligible for it. To qualify for
  the Obalon weight loss procedure a person need to
  have BMI (body mass index) between 30 and 40
  kg/m2. People with a BMI outside this range can
  receive the Obalon balloon, but it will be
  off-label. If you have had a weight loss
  procedure before then you will not be eligible
  for the procedure. You should also be able to
  follow a strict diet and workout regime as
  prescribed by the doctor.

Are there any side effects?

• There are certain kinds of side effects involved
  when there is any kind of alteration to the body.
  It is just the bodys way of adjusting to the
  change. People who have undergone this procedure
  sometimes complain of mild nausea and abdominal
  pain. This issue usually is self-limited within a
  few days. You can also counteract any reflux
  issues with acid-blocking drugs prescribed by
  your doctor.
