Gastric Balloon
Gastric balloon is a temporary, endoscopic weight loss procedure designed for individuals who struggle with obesity and prefer a non-surgical solution. A soft silicone balloon is inserted into the stomach and then inflated with saline or gas, limiting the space for food and helping patients feel full more quickly. The balloon stays in place for 6 to 12 months and supports healthy lifestyle changes that lead to meaningful weight loss.
The placement procedure takes about 20–30 minutes and is performed under mild sedation. Most patients return home the same day and can resume light activities within a few days. While the balloon is in place, patients follow a monitored diet and coaching program to build sustainable eating habits. After removal, continued lifestyle efforts are key to maintaining results. Gastric balloon is a safe and effective option for patients not ready for surgery but needing structured support.

Procedure
Balloon placed endoscopically and inflated.

What is Rhinoplasty ?
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the nose for aesthetic enhancement or functional improvement. It can address concerns like:
A dorsal hump
Drooping or bulbous nasal tip
Crooked bridge
Overall facial imbalance
In many cases, rhinoplasty is also performed to improve nasal breathing, particularly when combined with correction of a deviated septum.
At our clinic, board-certified surgeons take a personalized, detail-oriented approach, analyzing each patient’s facial structure to deliver natural-looking and harmonious results.
Rhinoplasty Process
1. Consultation
Detailed facial and nasal analysis
Discussion of aesthetic goals and functional concerns
Customized surgical plan tailored to your features
2. Surgical Procedure
General anesthesia is typically used
Hidden incisions (inside the nostrils) minimize visible scarring
The nose is reshaped (tip refined, hump reduced, bridge straightened, etc.)
If needed, internal corrections like a septoplasty are performed to enhance breathing
3. Recovery
Surgery duration: 2–3 hours
Outpatient procedure: most patients go home the same day
Swelling and bruising peak in the first week and subside within 1–2 weeks
External splint worn for about a week
Return to light activities and office work: typically within 7–10 days
Final results: refined nasal shape settles within 12 months
