Allurion Gastric Balloon▼
A non-surgical procedure involving placing a small balloon in the stomach. The balloon is placed with the help of a small pill, which is simply swallowed by the patient in a guided procedure. Once in the stomach, the balloon opens up and is filled with water. The balloon eventually dissolves and passes through the body in a normal bowel movement. The balloon helps you feel fuller with smaller portions, which means that you avoid snacking.

Includes weight loss medication programs designed to work in harmony with the body's natural processes, gastric balloons, and nutritional & lifestyle support including personalised nutritional guidance, exercise plans, and behavioural strategies.
