Kick-Start Your Weight Loss Journey
If you are significantly overweight and have a history of unsuccessful dieting, the Elipse Balloon Weightloss Program may be right for you. With the help of your care team and the sense of fullness created by your balloon, you can change your eating habits and reclaim control of your health. The Elipse Balloon creates a constant feeling of fullness, allowing you to eat less without the hunger that accompanies most diets....
- With the sense of fullness created by the Elipse Balloon in your stomach, you can eat less without feeling hungry.
- Lose up to 50 % of your excess weight over four months of Balloon therapy.
- Clinical studies have consistently demonstrated that gastric balloons provide significantly more weight loss than diet and exercise alone.
The Elipse Balloon is made of a thin, flexible polymer film. Unlike other weight loss balloons on the market, the Elipse Balloon can be placed and removed without surgery, endoscopy, or anesthesia. It is swallowed in a capsule during a brief outpatient office visit and remains in the stomach for approximately four months, after which it opens and passes naturally from the body.
Allurion Technologies is dedicated to helping people realize their full potential with innovative, scalable and trusted experiences. The company's flagship product, Elipse Balloon, is the world’s first and only swallowable, procedureless gastric balloon for weight loss.
Our Package for Elipse Balloon Insertion includes: – The Balloon – Procedure cost – 4 consults with the Doctor – 3 consults with a Dietitian/ Nutritionist – Your own Body Composition Scale – App to monitor the trend of weight loss
