The Elipse™ gastric balloon stands out for its convenient entry and spontaneous exit from the body. The whole process takes about 20 minutes. First you swallow the capsule, which is attached to a thin tube. Once the balloon is in your stomach, the doctor fills it up with fluid through the tube. Then the doctor carefully removes the tube and the procedure is finished.
The gastric balloon significantly reduces the volume of your stomach for four months, meaning you will eat much smaller portion sizes. After the procedure you will receive a digital scale connected to a mobile application that will record important parameters over the following months. A nutritionist will work with you to track and assess your weight loss. You will also receive nutritional advice from an experienced dietologist to help make sure you achieve the best weight loss results you can.
An Elipse gastric balloon can help you finally resolve your weight problems and kickstart a more healthy lifestyle. We will help you find a top doctor with plenty of experience using the Elipse gastric balloon. We work with many different experts in the Czech Republic, so we can advise you on who can best assist you with a smooth procedure.
On the day before the procedure you should adjust your diet according to the doctor’s instructions. You should stick to easily digested foods. We will give you more specific recommendations before the procedure. Please do not eat anything after midnight the night before.
The Elipse gastric balloon enters the body by swallowing a capsule and involves no anaesthesia or endoscopy. Before you swallow it, the balloon is in the form of a capsule the size of a large pill. This is much more manageable than other types of gastric balloon. Next you have an X-ray to make sure the capsule has reached its destination in the stomach. The doctor gently fills the balloon with liquid through the thin catheter attached to the capsule to about the size of a grapefruit (about half a litre). Once the balloon is full, the catheter disconnects and is removed through the mouth.
You go home from the clinic with a nutrition plan to help you adopt a healthy diet with regular small meals. You will also receive a digital scale connected to an application that will record important parameters. After four months the balloon is passed naturally into the toilet. During those four months with the Elipse balloon you will have lost about 10-15% of your body weight.
The risk of complications arising during or after the procedure is very low. Choosing the right surgeon with our help is the best thing you can do to get excellent results. Still, no surgeon in the world can guarantee no complications will ever occur. Taking out insurance on an operation is a logical step, and more and more patients today are choosing to insure their aesthetic operation. We will be glad to help you with that as well. Just say the word.
I am very happy to have referred to MedRoyal. My Coordinator and the whole team gave me a new attitude in my life.
At MedRoyal, they took care of everything, from the offer at the beginning to the final stay at the Clinic. They also helped me to book a hotel room for my husband who accompanied me.
The Coordinator answered all my questions not just before the surgery but also after it. She contacted the Surgeon and handled everything herself. She has always been here for me.
Everything was well organized – both the agency and the clinic. I felt in good hands all the time. Thank you.
You helped me to find a great Clinic, an amazing Surgeon and team. We solved everything simply at Whatsapp-the consultation, a hotel reservation and the financing method.
Elisa took my initial concerns seriously. She was able to answer everything clearly and always reassured me. We chose a suitable surgeon together. The final result is fantastic.
Thanks a lot to my Surgeon, his team and the MedRoyal Coordinator. Friendly staff with such dedication and energy really can’t be seen.
People from MedRoyal help you to choose the best Surgeon, plan the whole Surgery and the most important- these MedRoyal Coordinators are always here for you.
No, the procedure is outpatient and takes 20 to 30 minutes.
Usually immediately after the procedure.
The ELIPSE™ gastric balloon is suitable for clients with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of over 28 with no health problems or gastrointestinal diseases. Another appropriate indication for this procedure would be previous unsuccessful attempts at weight loss.
The ELIPSE™ gastric balloon is made of lightweight, flexible polyurethane, compressed into a small capsule before being filled with fluid. The balloon can fit about 500 ml of fluid, thereby reducing the volume of the stomach.
After the ELIPSE™ weight loss program, which lasts four months, you can expect to lose about 15 kg.
The results are usually long-term, but they do depend on a change in lifestyle, eating habits and exercise.

I never thought I’d do something like this, but I just didn’t feel good in my own body anymore and wanted to change something. When I was looking for clinics, I checked Google reviews – and that really paid off. The procedure went perfectly and I totally love the result. Like they say on the website, my confidence really grew, maybe even more than I hoped for. And the people… they’re all so kind and you always have support even after the procedure. I recommend it to everyone who’s not sure yet – just take the first step, maybe just contact them without commitment, it’s really worth it. After my experience and with this result, I would definitely do it again.
I came to MedRoyal because of my friend – I watched how her facelift went and it gave me courage to book a consultation and ask what options I have. Even though I kind of knew what to expect, I was still surprised how friendly and patient everyone was. The atmosphere is really relaxed, and if something isn’t clear, no problem, they explain it all. Honestly, there’s just no stress here. You can always ask questions, even after the surgery – the support never ends. And the result is amazing, I’m happy every single day.
It took me a long time to decide, I get stressed with doctors and really didn’t feel like going through a procedure. But already at the beginning I felt calmer – no pressure, everyone was nice, they explained everything, prepared me for every step. We discussed options and even picked a cheaper one than I first thought I’ll need. I was really scared, but it all went smoothly and was manageable. Recovery was fine too, there’s always someone available, even on weekends, if you need to ask something – that made me calm, even though in the end I didn’t really need it. Now, a few months later, I feel like it was one of the best decisions I’ve made.
I chose MEDROYAL mainly because I wanted to be sure I pick a surgeon based on real experience, and that’s exactly what happened. Right from the beginning they went through photos with me, explained realistic results, and recommended a surgeon with decades of experience in that specific field. The whole process was clear – no confusion, no long waiting, I got answers usually very quickly. The procedure and recovery went smooth and calm, you really feel you’re in safe hands. I mostly appreciate that I didn’t have to deal with everything on my own. I could always ask or check something, and I never felt like I bother anyone. For me, definitely a good experience.
I can really recommend MEDROYAL, I’m super happy with the result of my facelift and also with how nice everyone was. They are really skilled, total professionals, but at the same time still human and kind. They explained everything calmly and I always knew exactly what’s going on, which helped my nerves a lot, I was honestly quite stressed before. In general, everything was easier than I expected, no complications during or after the procedure. You can ask about anything, no question is stupid, they explain it even ten times if needed. They really understand that you can be nervous and it’s your first time doing something like this. I’m really thankful and recommend them everywhere I go 🙂
