Studies suggest that participants can expect to lose approximately 10-15% of their total body weight during the 16-week program. If you wish to lose more, the procedure can be repeated once the first balloon is naturally expelled from the body. For instance, if you weigh 80 kilos, you might lose between 8 to 12 kilograms with the Allurion weight loss program.

Yes, it is! Patients typically lose about two and a half times more weight during the 16-week program compared to standard dieting. Notably, 17% of participants have lost over 20% of their body weight. While traditional diets often leave people feeling hungry, the Allurion program enables participants to feel full with significantly less food. Additionally, it minimizes hunger pangs, which are frequently experienced with regular diet plans.

The process is safe and painless. The patient swallows a capsule attached to a thin catheter. Once an X-ray confirms its position in the stomach, the catheter is used to fill the capsule with about 550 ml of water. The vegan capsule contains a deflated balloon that expands as it fills, breaking the capsule open. After a second X-ray confirms the balloon is properly positioned, the catheter is removed. Supervised by an Allurion-certified doctor, the entire procedure takes approximately 15 minutes. This is the first weight loss program that does not require endoscopy or anesthesia for placement or removal.

You can sustain up to 95% of the weight loss for 12 months after the procedure.

At the end of the 16 weeks, the balloon deflates and is naturally expelled from the body, leaving no trace behind.

The balloon offers a discreet experience and it will not show outside your body. Others will come to know of it only when you tell them about it. So, go ahead, and feel confident.

The procedure takes approximately 15 minutes, and most people can return to their daily routine shortly afterward. Some may experience mild symptoms like nausea, stomach cramps, or vomiting for a few days. Allurion's dedicated care team will provide guidance on nutrition, weight monitoring, exercise, and how to gradually resume your activities.
