No matter what your weight goal, the intragastric balloon may help you. It is a 12-month weight loss program designed to kick-start your weight loss while supporting your lifestyle changes. It is an ideal solution if you are looking to lose up to 20-30lbs* of excess weight, but don't want to undergo permanent surgical solutions. (Weight loss varies person from to person).
Advanced Laparoscopic Associates is not only one of the first weight loss practices to be offering this balloon weight loss procedure in the tri-state area, but they participated in the FDA clinical trials and have therefore experienced the full potential of this program.

How the balloon works
Once the balloon is in place in your stomach it is filled with saline, expanding to partially fill the stomach area. This helps you feel less hungry and consume smaller portions of food as you experience a similar satisfaction as you would have previously experienced after consuming a larger meal.
Most weight is lost during the first three months, but because the intragastric balloon stays in your stomach for six months, you will learn to eat the right amount of food to maintain your new weight long-term.
During the first six months (and after) you will work together with our nutritional support team and weight loss experts to personalize your own plan.
