What Is the Allurion Programme?
Obesity affects millions across India, increasing the risk for diabetes, heart disease, joint problems, infertility, and sleep apnea. For those who have struggled with diets and exercise without lasting results, the Allurion Programme offers a breakthrough solution — the world's first non-surgical, swallowable gastric balloon programme.
The Allurion balloon can facilitate 10–15 kg of weight loss in approximately 16 weeks, without any surgery, endoscopy, or anaesthesia.
How Does the Allurion Balloon Work?
The procedure involves swallowing a small capsule attached to a thin tube — just like taking a tablet with water. Once confirmed in the stomach via X-ray, the balloon is filled with saline solution. It then occupies space in the stomach, creating faster fullness and reduced calorie consumption.
- No surgery required
- No endoscopy or anaesthesia
- 30-minute outpatient procedure
- Balloon naturally passes after 4 months
