This content was created by Dr. Charles Mok. This content was uploaded by Dr. Charles Mok. This is a YouTube video titled "Orbera Weight loss balloon 'Allure Medical Spa'" (created 2016-08-16). It is an interview-style segment in which a host (SPEAKER B) interviews Dr. Pesta (SPEAKER A) about the Orbera/intragastric weight-loss balloon — a non-surgical, endoscopically placed saline-filled gastric balloon that reduces hunger and can accelerate weight loss compared with diet and exercise alone. The excerpt describes the placement procedure, the mechanism (takes up stomach space to increase satiety), and includes a promotional call-to-action phone number. Last edited 2026-01-28.

Millions of Americans struggle with their weight, and obesity has become a national problem. We have Dr. Pesta with us here today. He's going to talk to us about a procedure that doesn't involve surgery to help people lose weight. Dr. Pesta.
The orberogastric balloon is placed within the stomach. It allows patients to lose weight three times faster than they would with diet and exercise alone.
Tell me how it's done. How's the procedure done?
The procedure is placed endoscopically. The uninflated balloon goes down into the stomach. We then fill it with saline. The balloon in place takes up space, makes the patients feel full longer, and so a small meal will satisfy that.
Okay, this isn't gastric surgery. This isn't stomach stapling. This is totally non surgical. Nobody needs to know that you did it. And you go home, you start feeling fuller sooner, so you start getting a new relationship with food. Is this more or less how it works?
Correct.
If you're one of the millions of Americans struggling with obesity, there's no reason to put this off any longer. If there's a procedure that's non surgical, no downtime, that can help you lose weight three times more effective than diet or exercise, give us a call at 800-577-2570.
