Swallow Pill Weight Loss Program

There are several non-surgical weight loss procedures and interventions available. Here are some non-surgical weight loss procedures that were known up until that point:

• Gastric Balloon A soft balloon is inserted into the stomach and inflated to create a feeling of fullness. This reduces the amount of food a person can eat.
• Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty: Using an endoscope, the stomach is sutured internally to create a smaller, sleeve-like shape. This restricts the amount of food the stomach can hold.
• Intragastric Balloon System: Similar to the gastric balloon, this procedure involves placing a deflated balloon into the stomach, which is then filled with liquid. It’s temporary and usually removed after a few months.
• Oral Medications: There are prescription medications that can aid in weight loss by reducing appetite, increasing feelings of fullness, or inhibiting the absorption of certain nutrients.
• Medical Nutrition Therapy: Working with a registered dietitian to create a personalized diet plan can help manage weight through healthy eating habits.
• Behavioral Therapy: Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and other therapeutic approaches can help individuals address the psychological aspects of weight gain and adopt healthier behaviors.
• Lifestyle Modification Programs: These programs involve combining dietary changes, increased physical activity, and behavioral therapy to achieve sustainable weight loss.
• Non-surgical Body Contouring: While not primarily for weight loss, procedures like cryolipolysis (CoolSculpting) and laser lipolysis can help contour the body by targeting specific areas of stubborn fat.
