A laparoscopic adjustable gastric band is placed embracing the upper part of the stomach creating a “pouch” or small stomach at the top.
Food is gathered in this small stomach creating a sense of fullness and enabling the patient to eat smaller portions.
This balloon is connected to a hose at its other end has a port (the size and shape of a
$ 1 coin weight) that is located below the skin.
Through a special syringe can be injected or removing saline solution to port.
The liquid passes through the hose is inflating and deflating the balloon.
The inflation of the stomach tightens and reduces the flow of food from the upper
part.
This causes the feeling of being full and consume fewer calories throughout the day.
