What Do Our Clients Say About Obalon Balloon?
What is Obalon Balloon System?
Dr. Moeinolmolki offers the Obalon balloon system to help overweight and obese adults achieve weight-loss goals. The Obalon balloon system is an innovative, FDA-approved treatment. It is designed for adults who have struggled to lose weight through traditional methods such as diet and exercise. This is a safe, non-surgical method. It involves digesting small capsules that inflate inside your stomach. This procedure might be right for you if you have a body mass index (BMI) between 30 and 40.
How Does Obalon Balloon Procedure Work?
Firstly, Dr. Moeinolmolki gives you small capsules, or balloons, that you swallow. Once the balloons reach your stomach, he inflates them with gas using a small catheter. After that, the inflated balloon remains in your stomach and doesn’t harm any of your internal structures. It occupies space so that you eat less. A fully inflated balloon is comparable in size to a small orange and weighs about the same as a penny.
In total, the procedure takes less than 10 minutes. Over the course of the three months, Dr. Moeinolmolki places three balloons inside your stomach. The schedule of treatment sessions depends on your weight-loss progress and how your body tolerates the balloons. You should experience gradual weight loss over a six-month period. After that, he removes the balloons via an endoscopy procedure with light sedation.
Am I a Good Candidate for Obalon Balloon System?
If you are approximately 30-100 pounds overweight, then the Obalon balloon system could be the solution to your weight-loss goals. Dr. Moeinolmolki evaluates you at his Los Angeles office to make sure you are in the right BMI range to undergo treatment. However, the other component is your willingness to adjust to the necessary lifestyle changes. To help keep the weight off and maintain your well-being, you need to be mentally prepared to continue working on proper diet and exercise habits to maintain your Obalon results.
Obalon Balloon System Specialist Dr. Moeinolmolki in Los Angeles, CA discusses this with you and makes sure you understand that your long-term results depend on your commitment and follow-through post-treatment.
