Non- Surgical Gastric Balloon Placement (Allurion Elipse)

Allurion Program

Kick-start your weight-loss journey.

The Allurion Program is a fully supported healthy lifestyle program, centered around a gastric balloon and digital weight-loss support tools.
1. Understanding gastric balloons
Gastric balloons are used widely to provide more substantial and sustained weight loss than diet and exercise alone. Gastric balloons take up space in your stomach, increasing the feeling of fullness and slowing the passage of food. This gives you the chance to take a “honeymoon from hunger”, make healthier dietary choices, and avoid the cravings that often come with regular diets.
2. Start your weight-loss journey today with the Allurion Program.
It’s based on the Allurion Elipse Balloon, which fills you up to reduce your appetite while you learn healthy new eating habits. It is supported by
the Allurion App, Allurion Connected Scale and Allurion Health Tracker to help you stay motivated and maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is for adults over the age of 18 who are overweight or obese, defined as a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 27.
3. Transform your waistline with a healthier lifestyle.
The Allurion Elipse Balloon is a new approach to weight loss. It does not require surgery, endoscopy,* or anesthesia. The balloon is swallowed during a brief 15-minute walk-in procedure. Approximately 16 weeks later, it deflates and passes out naturally.* It’s a convenient and safe way to kick-start a healthier lifestyle. On average patients lose 10-15% of their body weight thanks to the Allurion Program.1
4. The support you need to succeed
With the Allurion program, you will have access to a team of healthcare professionals to help you make new lifestyle changes. Use the Allurion Connected Scale, Allurion Health Tracker and Allurion App to stay motivated and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Share your progress with your doctor, family, and friends.

The Allurion Elipse Balloon fills you up, so you’re less hungry—making it easier to eat better, eat less, and form healthy habits that last.
