The "Mohak Legacy" Advantage
Any clinic can buy a balloon. Only Mohak Bariatrics offers the expertise to ensure it works. Placing a balloon & Managing the patient after placement is where experience matters.
Why trust your body to us?
- 35,000+ Procedures: We are the highest-volume bariatric center in the Asia-Pacific region. We have seen every anatomy and every reaction. We don’t guess; we know.
- The Training Ground: Dr. Mohit Bhandari is not just a practitioner; he is a Proctor. He trains other surgeons across India on how to perform endoscopic procedures safely.
- Safety First: Unlike small clinics, our balloons are placed in a World-Class OT with a dedicated anesthesia team, ensuring hospital-grade safety for a day-care procedure.
What is the Endoscopic Intragastric Balloon?
It is a soft, medical-grade silicone sphere placed inside your stomach to reduce its capacity by ~60%.
No Cuts
Inserted via the mouth using a flexible endoscope.
No Scars
Leaves absolutely no mark on your body.
Reversible
The balloon is removed after 6 or 12 months, leaving your stomach anatomy exactly as it was.
The "Mohak Portfolio" of Intragastric Balloons
We don’t believe in “One Size Fits All.” Drawing from our massive patient data, we match the device to your lifestyle:
The 6-Month Classic (FDA Approved)
- Ideal For: The "Deadline" Patient. (Brides-to-be, Actors, Models).
- Goal: Fast, aggressive weight loss (10–12kg) for a specific event.
The 12-Month Intragastric Balloon
- Ideal For: The "Sensitive" Patient or those with more weight to lose.
- The Mohak Edge
- Feeling nauseous? We reduce the fluid to give you relief.
- Weight loss stalled at Month 5? We inject more fluid to restart the process. This “Top-Up” strategy is a game-changer for long-term results.
The Procedure: Refined by Experience
- Duration: 15–20 minutes.
- Anesthesia: Twilight Sedation (Painless, but safer than deep anesthesia).
- Discharge: 3 hours post-procedure.
Exclusive: The "Mohak Comfort Protocol"
The biggest fear with balloons is nausea in the first week. Many clinics place the balloon and send you home with a prescription. We don’t.
Over thousands of cases, we have developed a proprietary Comfort Protocol:
Pre-Emptive Loading
We prepare your stomach before the procedure to reduce spasms.
24/7 Access
You get direct access to our Bariatric Nurse Coordinator during the adaptation phase.
Hydration Lounge
If you feel dehydrated, our doors are open for IV fluid support without hassle.
Who Qualifies?
- The “In-Between” Patient: BMI 27–32. Too heavy for diet alone, too light for major surgery.
- The “Fertility” Patient: Women needing to lose 10% body weight to improve PCOD or IVF success rates.
- The “Ortho” Patient: Need a knee replacement but the surgeon says “Lose 15kg first”? The balloon is the fastest bridge to your surgery.
Real Stories from the Mohak Archives
- “I tried every diet for 5 years. I lost 2kg and gained back 4kg. I came to Mohak because of Dr. Bhandari’s name. The balloon gave me the ‘stop button’ I was missing. I lost 16kg in 6 months, but more importantly, the team taught me how to eat so I didn’t gain it back.” – Anjali M., Indore
