Gastric Balloon in Turkey

Non-Surgical Weight Loss. No Scars. Real Results.

Struggling to lose weight despite dieting and lifestyle changes? Gastric Balloon Surgery offers a safe, non-surgical solution to help you take control of your weight without incisions, stitches, or permanent changes to your body. This minimally invasive treatment involves placing a soft silicone balloon into the stomach via endoscopy, where it expands and creates a lasting feeling of fullness — helping you eat less and lose weight more easily.

The entire procedure takes just 20–25 minutes, requires no general anaesthesia, and is performed on an outpatient basis. The balloon can remain in the stomach for six or twelve months, depending on your weight-loss goals and the type of balloon used.

Who Is Gastric Balloon Surgery For?

This treatment is ideal for individuals aged 18–55 with a BMI over 27, who have been unable to achieve long-term weight loss through diet alone. It’s especially helpful for patients who are not suitable for or do not wish to undergo surgery, but still want a medically guided, effective weight-loss tool.

At Clinic Phaselis in Antalya, your care is provided by board-certified specialists in internationally accredited hospitals, with full multilingual support and a compassionate team who understand your journey. Whether you’re at the beginning of your transformation or ready for a sustainable, non-surgical boost — we’re here to support you every step of the way.

FAQ

Gastric balloon treatment is suitable for individuals aged 18 to 55 with a BMI over 27 who struggle to lose weight despite dieting or exercising. It’s especially helpful for patients who want to avoid surgery but still need medical support for weight loss.

This procedure is not recommended for patients with severe gastric ulcers, previous stomach surgery, or large gastric hernias. Your eligibility will be confirmed during your pre-procedure consultation and endoscopic evaluation.

Most patients lose between 10% and 30% of their total body weight in the first 6 months. With healthy lifestyle changes, you may lose up to 50% of your excess weight by the end of treatment.

There are two types of balloons:

6-month gastric balloons
12-month gastric balloons
Both are temporary and must be removed endoscopically at the end of their term to avoid complications.

Gastric balloon surgery is non-surgical, minimally invasive, and performed on an outpatient basis. It promotes long-term weight loss and may help improve conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and low self-esteem related to obesity.

Serious complications are rare. Some patients experience temporary side effects such as nausea, vomiting, or crampsin the first few days, but these are usually manageable with medication.

The mortality rate is extremely low. With advanced technology, expert teams, and high-quality medical instruments used at Clinic Phaselis, this procedure is considered very safe.

What Our Patients Say

Gastric Sleeve

The whole experience from start to finish has been amazing. I am now 3 weeks PO from a gastric sleeve and there isn’t a stage that I haven’t been met with the utmost care and reassuring advice! From the initial enquiry, pre flight, arrival and throughout my surgery and stay, even now after I am home, the whole thing has been such a great service! Transfers were brilliant. The hospital and all of the people involved in care from start to finish were so kind and efficient. The hotel is beautiful and such a lovely place to recover.
