Lose an average 10-15% of your body weight in approximately 16 weeks with the Allurion Weight-Loss Program
20 Min Non-Surgical Gastric Balloon for Weight Loss
The deflated balloon is swallowed in a capsule. Once it reaches the stomach, it’s inflated with a solution, taking up space in the stomach.
An X-ray is used to verify the balloon’s position and ensure it’s correctly located in the stomach.
After confirming the correct placement, the balloon is filled with a sterile saline solution. This inflation process is crucial for the effectiveness of the weight loss treatment.
Another X-ray is conducted to confirm that the balloon has been filled properly and is in the desired position within the stomach.
Once the balloon placement and inflation are confirmed, the threads or guides used during the insertion process are gently removed.
After 16 weeks, a valve opens, allowing the balloon to naturally exit the body without requiring a removal procedure.
