What is a Gastric Balloon?
A gastric balloon is a soft, expandable silicone balloon that is temporarily placed in your stomach. Once filled with sterile
saline solution, it takes up nearly half of the space in your stomach. This physical restriction makes you feel full much faster
and reduces your overall calorie intake without the need for any surgical incisions.
According to research published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), temporary gastric balloons are a highly successful,
FDA-approved intervention that bridges the gap between basic dieting and traditional bariatric surgery.
Top 5 Amazing Benefits of the Treatment
Patients flying in to the best bariatric clinic Turkey has to offer choose this procedure for its speed and simplicity. Here are the top 5 reasons to consider it:
The Procedure: Endoscopic vs. Elipse Balloon Turkey
We offer the latest, most comfortable balloon technologies. Depending on your preference and medical profile, the procedure is incredibly straightforward:
Option A: The Endoscopic Balloon
Under mild sedation, a deflated silicone balloon is gently guided down your throat and into your stomach using an endoscope. Once in place, it is filled with sterile saline. This balloon stays in your stomach for 6 months and is removed the same way.
Option B: The Swallowable Balloon (Elipse/Allurion)
This is the ultimate innovation in weight loss! You simply swallow a small capsule attached to a thin tube. Once an X-ray confirms the capsule is in your stomach, we inflate it through the tube. The best part about the Elipse balloon Turkey option is that it requires no sedation, no endoscopy, and naturally deflates and passes through your digestive tract after about 4 months.
Why Chose Us?
Swallowable Gastric Balloon Cost in Turkey vs. The UK & US
Weight loss treatments in Western countries are often classified as cosmetic and are rarely covered by insurance. When comparing the swallowable gastric balloon cost and endoscopic options, Turkey provides the exact same premium brands (like Allurion and Orbera) for a fraction of the price.
| Treatment Type | UK/US Average Price (per tooth) | Turkey Average Price (per tooth) | Potential Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Endoscopic Gastric Balloon (6 Months) | £4,000 – £6,000 | £1,200 – £1,800 | Up to 75% |
| Swallowable Balloon (Elipse/Allurion) | £4,500 – £6,500 | £1,800 – £2,500 | Up to 65% |
Secure Your Results with Complete Care
While the balloon limits your food intake, staying properly hydrated and nourished during the first few weeks is crucial.
