Spatz is a special type of weight loss balloon that goes inside the stomach through endoscopy and stays up to 8 months. The main difference? It is adjustable. That means if a patient feels too full or not full enough, the balloon size can be changed later. This helps in improving results and reducing early side effects.
Unlike swallowable balloons, Spatz requires light sedation and endoscopy for placing and removing the balloon. Once inside, it takes up space in the stomach, reducing how much you can eat and making you feel full faster.
According to Dr. Kapil Agrawal, the Spatz Balloon is ideal for:
Individuals suffering from stomach ulcers, bleeding disorders, or previous stomach surgery are not good candidates.
Check-up First – Your BMI, medical history, and fitness for endoscopy are reviewed.
Balloon Placement – The balloon is inserted into the stomach via endoscopy under light sedation.
Balloon Filling – The balloon is inflated with sterile saline once placed in the stomach.
Adjustment – Later, the size can be changed to improve comfort or boost results.
Monitoring – Regular check-ins to see weight, side effects, and progress
Balloon Removal – After 8 months, the balloon is removed by another endoscopy
Longer Duration – Balloon stays up to 8 months for extended weight loss
Adjustable Volume – Unique feature to increase or decrease size based on need
Higher Average Weight Loss – Many patients lose 15–25 kg
Better Tolerability – If discomfort happens, the size can be reduced
Non-Surgical – Still doesn’t need any cutting or stitches
Custom Plans – Diet and follow-up care personalised as per weight goals

Advanced Endoscopic Care – Done by trained gastro-bariatric experts only
Now Accessible Across Delhi NCR – The procedure is offered at various Habilite locations.
