The Allurion Swallowable Gastric Balloon
A simple step with a lasting impact.

The Allurion gastric balloon is a soft capsule that’s swallowed and filled in a 15-minute outpatient visit. It helps reduce your food intake by creating a sense of fullness—so you eat less and feel satisfied longer.
This groundbreaking balloon does not require surgery, endoscopy, or anesthesia. Once in place, it supports your weight loss journey for 4 months before naturally exiting the body.
Your treatment doesn’t end there: with the Weight Doctors®, you’ll get access to our complete lifestyle support program. This includes the Weight Doctors® app which includes 24/7 guidance from AI Coach Iris, a digital smart scale, and expert support from the Weight Doctors® 360 Coaches — to help you create lasting healthy habits.

    How the Allurion Balloon Works
    Swallow. Fill. Go.

    The process is quick and straightforward. You swallow a capsule attached to a thin tube. An X-ray confirms it’s in the right position. Once in place, the doctor fills the capsule with a safe water saline solution—turning it into a soft balloon in your stomach. A second X-ray confirms it’s completely filled, and the tube is gently removed. No surgery, sedation, or endoscopy needed.

    What to Expect on Your Journey
    Personalized support throughout your 4-month transformation

    As with any effective weight loss programme, sustainable results come from a combination of medical tools and behavioural change. That’s why our Allurion programme combines the gastric balloon with tailored lifestyle support, tailored to your needs.
    Throughout the 4 months, the balloon reduces your appetite and cravings by helping you feel full sooner. With the Weight Doctors® 360 Coaches, our intuitive Weight Doctors® app, smart digital scale, and AI Coach Iris, you’ll build healthier eating habits and experience real results.
    At the end of the 4 months, the balloon releases the water and passes naturally—no removal procedure required. You’re left with newfound control over your eating and a renewed mindset for long-term weight management.

    Experience really matters

    Undergoing weight loss treatment is a big decision, often patients have considered it for years before taking the plunge. 

    For a long time patients were presented only with surgical options for obesity. Whilst these options can be good, they are also invasive. Weight Doctors® recognised early on that a large potion of weight loss patients are generally healthy with a BMI lower than 50. A minimally invasive, yet powerful procedure suits these patients perfectly. 

    Weight Doctors® were amongst the first European specialists to provide Endoscopic treatment for weight loss and have grown to be the largest with centres across UK, the Netherlands, South Africa, Germany and beyond. Not only that, Endoscopic treatment is our speciality and passion. 

    Working with International experts such as Dr Devinder Bansi, Professor Karl Miller and Professor Thomas Hoelting soon saw Weight Doctors® at the cutting edge of endoscopic treatment and performing cases in high volume. 

    Now ESG sits alongside traditional surgical weight loss methods, is approved for use within the NHS and attracts around 10'000 patients each year. 

    With all this said, ESG is an intricate procedure only to be performed by experts who carry out the procedure routinely and with an excellent clinical team. At Weight Doctors®, patients can be confident of this expert team, alongside excellent clinical facilities and industry leading aftercare.

    Adjusting to Your Balloon: What to Expect in the First Few Days

    The first few days after balloon placement can be both physically and mentally challenging. It’s common to experience symptoms such as nausea, discomfort, or vomiting as your body adjusts. This is temporary. Our medical team will guide you with personalised advice and, if needed, prescribe supportive medication to help you stay nourished and comfortable. Most patients start feeling better within a few days and can fully engage in their weight loss journey.

    Proven Weight Loss with Real Results

    Clinical studies and our experience show that the Allurion Balloon delivers powerful results. In just 4 months, our patients typically lose between 10 to 15 kg of their total body weight. A study even showed that 72% of this weight loss was maintained one year after the balloon exited the body. This makes the Allurion gastric balloon a highly effective, non-surgical alternative to conventional diet programs.

    “The Allurion gastric balloon is an impressive, minimally invasive procedure, excellent for patients who are reluctant to undergo anaesthesia. For those who have tried conservative diets, but failed to reach their goals, it can be a powerful option.”

    frequently asked questions

    The entire treatment takes only 15-20 minutes.

    Extensive research and development was undertaken to create the Allurion gastric balloon. The result is an innovative material that is so light, think and robust that the balloon can be folded into a tiny capsule. The capsule is so small that it can be easily swallowed. This means that a gastroscopy is no longer necessary.

    Our patients usually leave after just 45 minutes without any external signs of treatment. A quick return to your everyday life is to be expected.

    During a comprehensive consultation we will find out together if Allurion gastric balloon treatment is suitable for you. Patients must have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27 or above. .
