Non-surgical Orbera™ Intragastric Balloon placement

How the Orbera balloon can help your patients living with obesity

Could your patients with obesity benefit from a temporary, non-surgical procedure to jumpstart weight loss? The Orbera Intragastric Balloon System works by going through your patient's mouth to place a soft balloon in the stomach for up to six months – creating a feeling of fullness to help reduce calorie intake and encourage portion control.
