The Allurion Gastric Balloon is accompanied by a complete weight loss program
The Allurion Gastric Balloon takes up space in the stomach, reduces hunger and increases satiety, helping to reduce daily calorie intake. Placed without surgery, it is swallowed and filled with sterile water during a 15-minute consultation. It empties and eliminates naturally around 4 months later.
A multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals will support you with a personalized nutrition and lifestyle change program lasting at least 6 months. They'll help you adopt healthier habits that suit you and that you can maintain over the long term.
The Allurion connected scale and Allurion app will help you monitor your progress: the evolution of your weight, body composition and activity. This data can also be shared in real time with your follow-up team for better support. You're not alone!
The Allurion Gastric Balloon: A fast and sustainable way to lose weight
SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN RESULTS

MORE EFFECTIVE THAN A

Thanks to the gastric balloon, the Allurion Program leads to an average of 10 - 15% weight loss in about 4 months. This is about 2.5x more than the weight loss achieved with an intensive lifestyle modification program alone.
SUSTAINABLE WEIGHT LOSS
The behavior modification program that accompanies the Allurion Balloon promotes current and future weight loss. On average, 96% of weight loss can be maintained 1 year after balloon removal.

Your burning questions about the Allurion weight-loss
Programme answered here
Up to 96% of weight-loss may be sustained 12 months after the Balloon exits the body!Â
Yes! The Allurion Program, a combination of our unique swallowable gastric balloon and a supported lifestyle change program, leads to nearly 2.5 times the weight loss than a lifestyle change program alone, according to an independent study.
In another study, three-quarters of participants who attempted to lose weight over a year through calorie-controlled or restricted diets (72% of participants), exercise programs or courses (22%), and pharmaceutical treatments (12%), did not achieve a clinically meaningful weight loss defined as at least 5% of their body weight. The evidence shows that these isolated methods alone are not enough.
The 6-month Allurion Program combines medical support and a weight-loss device (Allurion Gastric Balloon), digital tools (Allurion Connected Scale and Allurion App) and nutritional coaching to kick-start your weight loss and help you form lifelong healthy habits to maintain the weight loss.

The Allurion Balloon is the world’s first and only gastric balloon without the need for surgery, endoscopy* or anaesthesia for balloon placement and removal. The balloon is swallowed as a capsule during a 15-minute placement which means less downtime or time off work for our patients.
Designed to pass naturally at approximately 16 weeks, the Allurion Balloon maximizes weight loss while minimizing time spent in the body, making it a more effective option than longer 6-month endoscopic balloons, where 80% of weight loss is achieved within the first 3 months.
The Allurion Balloon is a safer option, with fewer side effects. It has a significantly lower intolerance rate compared to 12-month endoscopic balloons (1-3% vs 14.4%) with an overall serious adverse event rate that is 10 times lower than other liquid-filled balloons.
Made from vegan polyurethane, a material that’s much thinner and more flexible than the silicone material in endoscopic balloons, the Allurion Balloon flexes and adapts as your stomach moves, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit.
