WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM
THE ELIPSE BALOON
“No anesthesia, No endoscopy, No surgery”
Allurion’s flagship product, the Elipse Balloon, is the first and only gastric balloon that does not require endoscopy, surgery, or anesthesia for placement or removal. The Elipse Balloon fills the stomach and helps the user feel full and therefor eat less. The Elipse Balloon is ingested during a brief visit to the doctor and, four months later, it is eliminated on its own without the need for an extraction procedure.
The implantation of the Elipse balloon is part of a complete four-month weight loss program. A multidisciplinary team of physician and nutritionist who are part of the “Elipse philosophy” are involved. The program provides a scale connected via Bluetooth to an app that allows you to track your weight loss progress from your mobile phone.
Our Team of Professionals perform the preliminary evaluations and prepare everything for the installation of the ball. In addition, they supervise the treatment throughout the program.
How it works?
The Elipse Program includes the work of a multidisciplinary team that, from the consultation and the entire adaptation process, provides the patient with a transformative weight loss experience. After a previous analysis and some tests, the most appropriate time to perform the procedure is determined.
The program begins once the Capsule containing the balloon is ingested. After confirming with an x-ray its correct and definitive position in the stomach, the balloon is filled with liquid through a catheter.

FRECUENT QUESTIONS
HOW IS THE ELIPSE BALLOON DIFFERENT FROM OTHER BALLS?
The Elipse gastric balloon is the first balloon that does not require surgery, endoscopy or anesthesia. For its implantation, you simply have to ingest a capsule with the help of a glass of water and it will be implanted in just 15-20 minutes, without any discomfort.
HOW LONG DOES THE EFFECT OF THE GASTRIC BALLOON LAST?
Depending on the characteristics, background and needs of the patient, we have different types of balloons with a duration of 4 months.
HOW DOES THE ELIPSE™ GASTRIC BALLOON WORK?
Gastric Balloons induce a feeling of satiety, thanks to this you will eat less and get your body used to eating a smaller amount of food, without feeling the hunger that you suffer with diets. In addition, the food will remain in your stomach longer, reinforcing the feeling of satiety, which will avoid the temptation to snack between meals.
WHAT RESULTS TO EXPECT?
The Gastric Balloon is a widely accepted tool and provides a more significant and lasting weight loss than diet and physical exercise alone.
During this time you will be able to lose between 10 to 15% of your body weight, in a safe and lasting way, also acquiring healthy lifestyle habits and above all without feeling constantly hungry.
FOR WHOM IS THE GASTRIC BALLOON INDICATED?
It is indicated for all those people over 18 years of age with a BMI of 27 and over who have not been able to achieve and maintain weight loss through diet and other methods. It is also indicated before surgery in patients with morbid obesity to facilitate the intervention.
Patients who plan to undergo trauma, spine or other types of surgery and require weight loss to reduce the risks of the intervention and facilitate post-surgical rehabilitation.
HOW IS THE BALL REMOVED?
After approximately 16 weeks in the stomach, a timer valve degrades inside the balloon, which empties it and subsequently passes through the gastrointestinal tract, being eliminated in the stool, without the need to use any extraction procedure.
