Elipse Balloon
What is ‘The Allurion Balloon Weight Loss Programme?’
The Allurion Balloon is a weight loss aid for adults over the age of 18 who are overweight or obese.
Obesity is Defined as a body mass index (BMI +27).
If you are significantly overweight and have a history of unsuccessful dieting, then Elipse Balloon Weight Loss Programme may be right for you.
While earlier generations of gastric balloons required a medical procedure with anaesthesia to be placed and removed, the Elipse Balloon is the first gastric balloon that is swallowed and naturally excreted months later.
However, You won’t need any surgery, endoscopy or anaesthesia. With Elipse Balloon, the priority is your convenience, comfort and safety.
The doctor will place the Elipse Balloon during a brief outpatient visit, allowing you to get back to your busy life.
Furthermore, as a participant in the comprehensive Elipse Programme, you will receive all the support you need to succeed. A team of compassionate healthcare professionals including a Consultant and a Nutritionist will guide you through the procedure.
Additionally, a wireless digital scale which provides constant updates on the progress to the care team will be provided to the patient and multiple visits with the team will help you get the maximum benefit from the Elipse Balloon. With the help of the Elipse Balloon, programme participants lose an average of between 13 and 15 kg over four months.
The Allurion Balloon works by simulating the feeling of fullness. It works by taking up space in the stomach and slowing the passage of food. Their presence helps users feel fuller faster, training them from the inside-out to eat smaller portions. Weight loss balloons enable their users to make healthier dietary choices without the cravings and hunger that often accompany regular diets.
After your Consultant confirms that Elipse Balloon therapy is right for you, s/he will place the balloon in your stomach during a brief 20-minute outpatient visit.
Furthermore, You will swallow a capsule that contains the deflated balloon along with a thin tube. Then, when the capsule has entered your stomach, your doctor will use the tube to fill the balloon with liquid.
Finally, the physician will remove the tube gently once the balloon is filled and you’ll be on your way.
