What is a gastric balloon pump?
It is a fast, safe, effective and totally new weight loss treatment without surgery, since it allows us to recover our state of health immediately and without damaging our organism.
At Doctor Life Clinics we have a team of highly qualified professionals who will advise you throughout the whole process. The Ellipse gastric balloon consists of placing a balloon of soft consistency in the stomach area, in such a way as to create a constant feeling of satiety without starvation.
This procedure is performed without having to resort to surgery, endoscopy or anesthesia for placement or removal. The patient will only need to swallow the balloon during a visit of approximately 20 minutes in an x-ray room at the hospital. Subsequently, a check is made to ensure that it has been correctly positioned.
How does the Ellipse gastric balloon work?
After placement, the patient will be able to lead a completely normal life, resuming daily activities. Once the first four months have passed, the balloon will be emptied and eliminated from the body naturally and without the need for medical removal.
This innovative gastric balloon technique allows us to reduce up to 50% of excess weight during only 4 months, something unthinkable in other gastric balloon methods.
Throughout this process it will be necessary to start with a weight loss program, which will fully help to achieve results and improve daily living habits.
At Doctor Life Clinics we offer you the best weight loss techniques at your complete disposal, forgetting forever about eternal diets and other more invasive procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions about Gastric Balloon
The Elipse ingestible balloon is the best option if you want to lose weight with the least possible medical implications, in a fast, painless and safe way.
On the one hand, the Ellipse balloon is swallowed by the patient in capsule form and swells once in the stomach thanks to a catheter. This procedure does not require surgery, endoscopy or anesthesia and the doctor makes sure that it is well positioned through an X-ray. Once in place and inflated, the physician removes the catheter and the balloon remains fixed inside the stomach. After remaining in the stomach for about 16 weeks, the balloon is emptied and digested naturally.
On the other hand, the traditional gastric balloon is introduced into the patient’s stomach with the help of an endoscope and must be removed by the same process 6 to 12 months later. In addition, anesthesia is used to alleviate the discomfort caused by the endoscope.
No, this process is minimally invasive as it does not require surgery. The patient swallows a capsule that is later inflated by a catheter, reducing discomfort to a minimum.
The Ellipse balloon will be completely fixed in the patient’s stomach after 20 minutes from the beginning of the intervention, being the fastest treatment we offer at Doctor Life Clinics.
