Despite the economic downturn, Cosmetic Surgery Consultants continue to see a record number of patients. That number has grown with the recent introduction of a non-surgical Gastric Balloon procedure, which studies have shown the average patient losing 15-20 kg (33-44 lbs) in just six months.

Harley Street, London (PRWEB) January 9, 2008 -- Cosmetic Surgery Consultants (http://www.cosmeticsurgeryconsultants.co.uk/), a leader in cosmetic surgery procedures, has announced the introduction of a non-surgical gastric balloon procedure (BIB) to help people lose significant weight quickly and safely while putting them on a path of success for the future.

Designed for people with a BMI under 35, the gastric balloon (http://www.cosmeticsurgeryconsultants.co.uk/gastric-balloon.htm) known as BIB™ is designed to make the patient not only take less food to feel full, but also feel fuller after smaller portions. The BIB™ is a soft, seamless balloon that is placed in the stomach for six months helping the patient feel partially full and not need as much food.

Insertion and removal is such an easy process that it often takes less than half an hour to insert and many patients need to take little or no time off work upon removal.

"People are so tired of the traditional diets that don't work or are wary of the aggressive, possibly dangerous newer forms of weight loss surgery (http://www.cosmeticsurgeryconsultants.co.uk/Obesity-surgery.htm). The BIB System™ is effective, non-invasive with limited side effects, and - best of all - safe." said Patrick Joleys, CEO for Cosmetic Surgery Consultants

The BIB™ has been tirelessly tested, including a 2005 European study of 2,515 overweight individuals with the average person losing an impressive 20 kilograms/44 pounds. A study before that saw an average weight loss of 15 kg/33 pounds after six months.

The balloon is only step one of the BIB System™. It also includes a healthier diet and lifestyle, which a team of medical experts will be helping each patient implement.

The BIB™ offers many distinct advantages over convention diets and weight-loss programmes. Patients reported feeling 'full' afterward, rather than constantly wanting to eat. There is no surgery needed or pharmaceutical pill to constantly take. And patients are supported by a team of medical experts throughout the process.

This is the latest in a long line of successful procedures and surgeries offered by Cosmetic Surgery Consultants. Despite the economic woes, Cosmetic Surgery Consultants is seeing a record number of inquiries.

"Many companies may look at last year and shake their heads, but 2008 was a banner year for us" Joleys said: "No matter what the economy is doing, people want to look and feel better. And with new procedures, like the BIB System™, always in the works, we envision an even brighter future."
