At Advanced Gastroenterology and Hepatology (AGH) of Greater Washington, we believe non-surgical weight loss can be a successful route to achieving one’s desired results. One non-surgical option is Spatz Medical Adjustable Balloon non-surgical weight loss — but is this the right choice for you? In this blog post, our team discusses the key points to consider when determining if this procedure is right for you. Read on to learn more and get in touch with our team at AGH of Greater Washington today.
Overall Health
The first point to consider is your overall health. Non-surgical weight loss options, such as the Spatz Medical Adjustable Balloon system, are best suited for people who have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or above. If you have a BMI lower than this, non-surgical weight loss may not be the best option for you and our team at AGH of Greater Washington can help you explore other options.
Health Goals
When determining whether the Spatz Medical Adjustable Balloon is the right non-surgical weight loss route for you, our team at AGH of Greater Washington will also help you consider your health goals. Are you looking to lose more than 30 pounds within a certain time period? Is it important that non-surgical weight loss doesn’t involve any invasive surgery? Knowing what’s important to you when it comes to non-surgical weight loss can help determine if the Spatz Medical Adjustable Balloon is the right choice.
Long-Term Maintenance
Additionally, non-surgical weight loss options like the Spatz Medical Adjustable Balloon require a commitment to long-term maintenance. After the balloon procedure, our team at AGH of Greater Washington can help you develop a plan to maintain your non-surgical weight loss success. This includes dietary and lifestyle changes that promote lasting results.
Patient Support
Lastly, non-surgical weight loss requires consistent patient support for the best outcomes possible. At AGH of Greater Washington, we offer non-surgical weight loss patients access to behavioral health services, nutrition counseling, and other support that helps them stay on track with their non-surgical weight loss goals.
At AGH of Greater Washington, we believe non-surgical weight loss can be a successful choice for many — but it’s important to consider a variety of factors before jumping in.
