Allurion Intragastric Balloon

Self-ingestible intragastric balloon Allurion Program

The self-ingestible gastric balloon (Allurion Program) is a bariatric procedure performed for the treatment of obesity and associated diseases, which consists of placing a soft sphere inside the stomach. "Without anesthesia, without surgery, without endoscopy. It is placed by swallowing a pill, in 15 minutes" How does the Allurion program work? The intragastric balloon works through 2 mechanisms: 1.- Restrictive: The balloon occupies a space inside the stomach which physically restricts food intake. 2.- Increased satiety: The contact of the intragastric balloon with the inner wall of the stomach produces stimulation of the gastric cells, this stimulation translates into a neurological signal of satiety. That is, the ball produces a feeling of being satisfied, or an increase in satiety. Achieve an average weight loss of 10% to 15% during the 16 weeks of treatment. Up to 95% of weight loss can be maintained one year after removing the balloon. Currently there are several studies that support its effectiveness. See studies.

Patients recover immediately since it is an outpatient procedure. After approximately 16 weeks, the balloon is discarded by the body naturally without the need to remove it.

How is the Allurion balloon removed?


One of the most common questions our patients have is how to eliminate the intragastric balloon from the Allurion Program. The Allurion Program intragastric balloon has a time-activated discharge valve, which opens and allows the balloon, after remaining in the stomach for approximately 16 weeks, to deflate and be eliminated naturally. This without the need for a surgical or anesthesia procedure for its removal.
