The industry's value stood at US$ 55.5 million in 2022, and it is forecasted to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 12.2% from 2023 to 2031, reaching US$ 160.7 million by the end of 2031.

The global intragastric balloons market is experiencing a surge, primarily fueled by the escalating prevalence of obesity worldwide. Over the past few years, there has been a noticeable uptick in the adoption of intragastric balloons among both patients and physicians. This trend is attributed to their clinically-proven efficacy coupled with minimal risk, pain, and recovery time, which are pivotal factors propelling market expansion.

Moreover, the growing demand for minimally invasive weight-loss therapies is anticipated to further bolster the global intragastric balloons industry throughout the forecast period. As individuals increasingly prioritize less invasive treatment options, the market for intragastric balloons is poised for substantial growth in the coming years.

Market Overview:

Intragastric balloons, also referred to as stomach balloons or gastric balloons, are medical devices utilized for inducing weight loss. These devices are temporarily inserted into the stomach and function by occupying space within it, thereby prompting the patient to feel full sooner during meals. This mechanism aids in reducing food intake, facilitating weight management.

Typically implanted endoscopically, intragastric balloons are filled with saline solution to maintain inflation within the stomach for a predetermined duration, commonly around six months. Some variations include self-deflating models. Upon completion of the intended period, these balloons are either removed endoscopically or expelled from the body passively. Clinical research has demonstrated that intragastric balloons, in conjunction with lifestyle modifications, can assist patients in shedding 15% to 25% of their body weight.

Increase in Demand for Minimally Invasive Weight-loss Therapies

In recent years, there has been a notable surge in demand for weight loss methods that are minimally invasive and pose low risk. As more individuals seek effective weight management solutions without extensive lifestyle changes or invasive surgeries, the intragastric balloons industry has experienced significant growth. This trend reflects a broader shift towards less disruptive approaches to weight control.

Intragastric balloons offer an outpatient weight loss procedure characterized by rapid recovery times and minimal post-operative restrictions. Compared to more invasive bariatric surgeries, which often require longer hospital stays and complex aftercare, balloons present a less intrusive alternative.

The appeal of balloon treatment as a primary option for overweight individuals lies in its low procedural risk and simplicity. With the introduction of newer self-expandable models that eliminate the need for endoscopic removal, demand for these devices has increased further. Moreover, rising awareness of obesity-related health risks has spurred interest in non-surgical weight loss interventions, positioning balloons as a clinically verified solution either as a preliminary step or an alternative to more invasive procedures.

Key Developments in Global Intragastric Balloons Market

  • In October 2023, Spatz Medical received FDA approval for its Spatz3 Gastric Balloon, the first adjustable gastric balloon system. The Spatz3 is the fifth balloon to receive FDA approval, and its pivotal clinical trial results showed a 15% weight decrease and an 84% success rate. The balloon has been implanted in almost 100,000 patients in over 40 countries, and its unique adjustability feature has created an effective and safe weight loss therapy.
  • In June 2023, Allurion signed a 12-month pilot collaboration agreement with Medtronic to distribute its swallowable gastric balloon and AI platform for weight loss. The balloon, which stays in place for about four months, is designed to curb hunger and fill up the stomach. Patients can monitor their progress and receive behavior-changing guidance using Allurion's connected scale, health-tracking smartwatch, and mobile app. The company believes this partnership will accelerate the adoption of the Iris AI platform as a standalone offering to streamline the management of patients undergoing bariatric surgery and potentially improve outcomes.
  • In April 2023, Boston Scientific completed the acquisition of Apollo Endosurgery, valued at approximately US$ 615 Mn. Apollo Endosurgery's product portfolio includes devices used during endoluminal surgery (ELS) procedures, which are less-invasive alternatives to open and laparoscopic surgery. The acquisition is an exciting step forward in providing a more comprehensive suite of endoluminal surgery and endobariatric solutions.
