Our patients come to us because they’re tired of trying diet after diet and weight loss fads only to be disappointed by the outcomes. They want to take the weight off but aren’t convinced that surgery is the answer. This is the very reason we consider all available options, both surgical and non-surgical, so that we can find the best possible solutions for each and every patient.

Intragastric balloon procedure
The intragastric balloon procedure is an innovative approach that can jump-start long-term results for our patients. This non-surgical procedure can provide you with non-permanent, and non-surgical techniques for weight loss.
Are you a candidate for an intragastric balloon?
The team at My Bariatric Solutions works with you through an extensive screening process to determine if this particular procedure is right for you.
- 27-32 BMI
- Patients with no active ulcer disease
- Patients with no large hernia
- Patients with no prior gastric surgery
What are the side effects of an intragastric balloon
The procedure is a safe procedure and the reported side effects include mild abdominal pain and nausea, which are typically resolved within the first two weeks. However, patients must take daily acid-blocking medicines and the balloons must be removed after six months.
Health benefits from surgery
Choosing to have weight loss surgery is a huge, and sometimes difficult, decision. But the near instantaneous health advantages are hard to deny. With weight loss surgery most patients see amazing results including:
- Lower blood pressure
- Improvement of high cholesterol levels
- Potential reversal of Type-2 diabetes
- Improvement or cessation of life-threatening sleep apnea
- Reduction in symptoms of acid reflux
- Less risk of heart attack, stroke, and cancer
- Increased potential for conception by helping to increase fertility levels in both parents
Your life reimagined
The health benefits of weight loss surgery alone can be a game changer but redefining what it means to live large brings happiness on an entirely different level. We want our patients to stop dreaming big and provide them weight loss solutions that will give them the confidence and ability to do the things they’ve never been able to do before or return to activities from the past.
Through your journey, we help you learn to recognize and cope with past issues that lead to overeating but provide an individualized program with support groups, psychological counseling services and post-surgical health, wellness and nutrition plans that help you learn how to live a new and vibrant lifestyle.
