About Weight Loss Balloons
Weight loss balloons provide a short-term, non-permanent solution to weight loss. These balloons can either be inserted under an anaesthetic, or our non-surgical balloons can be swallowed and then inflated in an outpatient procedure requiring no anaesthetic.
Weight Loss Balloons
Lose on average 10 - 15% body weight in 16 weeks*
Are you overweight? Fed up with wasting money on weight-loss tools that don't work? The Allurion Programme supports your ongoing weight-loss over 6 months.
The world's first and only gastric balloon that does not require surgery, endoscopy or anesthesia.
How does the Allurion balloon work?
A swallowable balloon, the Allurion Balloon (previously known as Elipse Balloon) is a balloon in a small capsule and you swallow under the guidance of our Healthcare Professionals without anaesthesia or endoscopy*.
The stomach balloon (UK) will be inflated, checked using a quick x-ray and you’ll be on your way! The entire procedure takes approximately 15 minutes. You will also be supported by the Allurion Connected Scale, Health Tracker, and App.
What happens to the Allurion balloon?
During your Balloon journey, you and your healthcare team will focus on your relationship with food, goals, and education to help you achieve the best weight-loss results for you, and to set you up for weight loss maintenance after the Balloon has gone.
After approximately 16 weeks, the Balloon will naturally deflate and pass through your digestive system.

Weight loss balloons, also known as intragastric balloons, represent a non-surgical and temporary approach to managing obesity. These balloons are inserted into the stomach, typically through the mouth using an endoscope, and then inflated to occupy space within the stomach. This inflation reduces the available space for food, leading to early feelings of fullness, and thereby assisting individuals in consuming smaller portions and achieving weight loss.
Weight loss balloons are often part of a comprehensive weight management program and are usually left in the stomach for six months to a year before removal. They can be a suitable option for individuals seeking a non-surgical approach to address obesity or as a bridge to prepare for other weight loss procedures. However, they require commitment to dietary and lifestyle changes during their use to maximize their effectiveness.
