What Makes Obalon Different
Why Obalon?
Simple Concept:
The Obalon Balloon System helps facilitate weight loss by taking up space in your stomach so you eat less.
Meaningful Results:
When used with a diet and exercise program, people in the clinical trial lost twice as much weight as those with diet and exercise alone.
Helps Support Long Lasting Results:
Average of 89% of weight loss was kept off at 1 year (6 months post-removal), when combined with a moderate intensity diet and exercise program.
Quick Placement:
The placement of each Obalon balloon typically takes less than 10 minutes and doesn’t require sedation. In your physician’s office, you swallow a capsule containing a small balloon, and then your physician inflates the balloon.
Lightweight:
A fully inflated single balloon has a volume of 250cc, weighing approximately 3 grams (less than a penny) and about the size of a small orange. Therefore, all three balloons have a combined volume of 750cc.
The Obalon Balloon System helps facilitate weight loss by taking up space in your stomach so you eat less. The Obalon Balloon System supports you to help change your eating habits and keep the weight off for the long term.
Understanding Differences
Traditional liquid filled balloons are heavy and sink to the bottom of the stomach. SwallowThin is tiny and gas filled. It floats to the top of the stomach. The large saline filled balloons sink down to the bottom and obstruct the food from going out. The small gas filled ones hang out in the top of the stomach and don’t obstruct anything. No one has ever died with the SwallowThin by Obalon. The other saline products have tons of problems and require anesthesia to put them in.
