Vernon Hills, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/23/2018 -- Ritacca Cosmetic Surgery & Medspa now offer the latest in weight loss, Obalon Balloon System. The Obalon Balloon System is a swallowable intragastric balloon system indicated for temporary use to facilitate weight loss in adults with obesity (BMI of 30 – 40 kg/m2) who has failed to lose weight through diet and exercise.

Dr. Daniel Ritacca, Medical Director of Ritacca Cosmetic Surgery & Medspa says, "I'm excited to offer a safe and effective weight loss system to our patients…this is a different approach to weight loss; patients learn to lose weight and keep it off by making the right food choices with the assistance of the Obalon system & nutrition counseling." He adds, "We have already seen success without risks of other invasive weight loss surgeries."

The Obalon capsule is swallowed containing a small balloon, which is then inflated by a physician. A total of 3 balloons filled with gas occupy space in the stomach for 6 months. All balloons are removed 6 months after the first balloon is swallowed. During the 6-month period, Obalon patients will have complimentary access to a nutritionist offering recipes and meal plans to assist patients in their weight loss journey. Additionally, live online fitness classes and videos are offered.
