ReShapeTM – Gastric Balloon for Immediate Weight Loss

By Mark A. Liberman, M.D., F.A.C.S.

ReShapeTM - Gastric Balloon for Immediate Weight LossLets face it, losing weight is hard.  And those pounds that have been added on over the years don’t go away on their own.  You exercise and eat well but your weight doesn’t seem to change.  And surgery is just too drastic.  So if you’re serious about losing weight and improving your health, the ReShape® Gastric Balloon is a smart choice. The unique dual balloon design and comprehensive fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle coaching work together to help you achieve your goals. Clinically proven, it  is helping people around the world lose weight and keep it off. But perhaps most importantly, our patients are embracing their futures, improving their health, and feeling more confident than ever.

Introducing life changing weight loss, without surgery.  The reshape gastric balloon is a quick 15 minute outpatient endoscopic procedure.   Dr. Mark Liberman was the first surgeon in Southwest Florida  to perform the procedure.   There is no surgery, no incisions. The innovative design uses two connected balloons to take up room in the stomach. When the balloons are in place, there is less hunger, so it’s easier to eat the healthy foods in reasonable portions.

One year of comprehensive coaching
With guidance from Dr. Liberman and 10 visits with a nutritionist  to keep you motivated and accountable, and a full set of online tools and resources, patients are provided with one year of support to create permanent lifestyle changes.

Proven weight loss without surgery
In a recent study, patients lost more than two times more weight with ReShape than with diet and exercise alone. And most patients keep the weight off or continue to lose, even after the balloons are removed.

Why not try the single balloon?
That is old technology.  The other physicians  use a single 650cc balloon instead of a double balloon that contours to the stomach and takes up more space, 900cc.  Also if the single balloon deflates, it will most likely require surgery to remove it as it may get stuck in the intestines.  With the reshape balloon, if one deflates, the other balloon keeps it in the stomach
until it can be removed and replaced endoscopically,
no surgery.

Why Dr. Liberman
Dr. Liberman is a Board Certified Surgeon, Fellowship Trained in Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery.  He was the first MD in Southwest Florida to perform gastric balloon placement and has performed the second most procedures in the state.  He has also performed more than 10,000 endoscopies in his career.

The 3 Phases of ReShape Weight Loss
1. Readiness
The weight loss journey begins with a personalized evaluation. You’ll start receiving the education you need to prepare you for success.

2. Jump Start
During this phase, the two balloons are inserted in your stomach. They will remain in place for six months, helping to control portion size and curb appetite. With the balloons’ help, paired with
personalized coaching, you’ll focus on healthy eating, exercise, and lifestyle habits to maximize your success. The balloons are removed from your stomach at six months.

3. Healthy Living
After the balloons are removed, you’ll continue receiving support to help you achieve and maintain your optimal weight and healthy lifestyle.
