What is the Procedure of Allurion Gastric Balloon Treatment?

The balloon capsule known as Allurion Balloon is swallowed under the supervision of our healthcare professionals without the use of anaesthesia or endoscopy.

You will have the balloon inflated in your stomach, have a quick x-ray check, and then be on your way! An outpatient visit lasts roughly 15 minutes from beginning to end. The Allurion Connected Scale, Health Tracker, and App will also support you.

Along with our fully supported 6-month lifestyle programme, the Allurion Balloon can help you jump-start an average loss of 10-15% of your body weight in just 16 weeks. It is safe, non-permanent, and recommended by doctors.

The pill balloon deflates and leaves the body naturally after 16 weeks.

The effects might be permanent. By the time the balloon has passed, you will have changed your eating habits, become accustomed to smaller portions, and gained a new perspective on your body, all of which will produce lasting results rather than constant yo-yoing. ​

The Allurion Balloon can help you get started on your weight-loss journey and is a secure, temporary solution.

• Convenient and cost-effective 15-minute placement

In contrast, ordering an Allurion Balloon can help you save time, money, and effort. The gastric balloon from Allurion can be implanted during a 15-minute consultation with your doctor or healthcare provider because it can be taken as a capsule and swallowed. That entails no lengthy downtime or even holiday from work. It might be delivered on a Friday, allowing you to return to work on Monday.

Getting surgical treatment is always a big deal. With allurion balloon treatment, you don’t need to worry. You just have to make sure that your body is healthy enough for the procedure. Make sure that you are mentally prepared for your weight loss surgery in order to achieve a healthy weight. 

Here are some suggestions to help you in preparation for an Gastric balloon treatment.

What Type of Follow-Up Care is Required After Allurion Gastric Balloon Treatment?

An in-person or online consultation is the first step in the gastric balloon treatment process. In order to determine whether the Allurion Program is a good fit for you, the healthcare provider will look over your eligibility and talk to you about your weight-loss objectives during the consultation. Your eligibility may be verified by performing some standard tests.

If qualified, you take the capsule containing the balloon with a glass of water on the day of placement while being watched by an Allurion-certified physician (without anesthesia or endoscopy). The balloon is inflated with a sterile solution once it has been placed inside the stomach. The doctor quickly performs x-rays to ensure that the balloon placement is accurate.

The balloon takes up space in the stomach, creating a feeling of fullness and encouraging you to cut back on snacking. The balloon is temporary and safe; it deflates and leaves the body on its own after 16 weeks.

In order for the assigned dietician and you to track your weight loss progress over the course of six months, our team of knowledgeable dieticians assists you in connecting your Health Tracker Watch, Connected Scale, and the App. The assigned dietician regularly interacts with the patient and offers advice on diet choices and other lifestyle modifications that can help with weight loss.

Summing Up

Allurion balloon placement is a non-surgical weight loss treatment that involves placing a balloon in the stomach to reduce the amount of food a person can eat. The balloon is inserted through the mouth, using an endoscope, and is filled with saline solution to take up space in the stomach. The treatment is temporary and the balloon is typically removed after four months.

Studies have shown that Allurion balloon placement can be an effective weight loss treatment, leading to significant reductions in body weight and improvements in health outcomes. However, like any medical procedure, there are risks associated with the treatment, including nausea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort.

Allurion balloon placement may be a good option for people who have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone, but it is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine if the treatment is appropriate for individual circumstances. A comprehensive weight loss plan should include a combination of healthy eating habits, regular exercise, and medical support as needed.
