That is why with every gastric balloon procedure or bariatric surgery, Allure patients are privy to expert support from a talented, registered, and experienced dietitian.

Weight loss can facilitate a healthier, more confident way of life, and diminish the risk and impact of certain comorbidities. At Allure Weightloss, we are passionate about helping you to lose weight in a sustainable way so that you can benefit from long term results.
Gastric Balloons
Gastric balloons are a celebrated weight loss tool designed to suppress hunger whilst in situ. Patients can typically expect an average weight loss of 10 – 18% depending on the weight loss balloon chosen. Allure Weightloss are specialist providers of the FDA Approved BIB and Orbera 365 gastric balloons. You can discuss these options with a member of our friendly and professional support team.
A gastric balloon placement can help you lose weight quickly while they are in place, however, they are also there to help sustain long term weight loss. A gastric balloon helps you lose weight by taking space in your stomach so that you feel fuller faster, limiting the amount of food you need to consume in order to feel full. They also help by suppressing the hunger hormone, ghrelin.
While your balloon is in place, the Allure weight loss team will help you to develop healthier habits so that once your deflated balloon is removed, you are in a position to continue losing weight and sustaining the weight lost with the help of the balloon. Our team of dietitians are on hand to help you develop a healthy diet and exercise habits that can set you up for long term success.
Gastric Sleeve and Bypass
Allure Weightloss are also proud to provide private gastric sleeve and gastric bypass surgeries in several of our clinics. Each procedure looks to drastically reduce the space available in the stomach, with an average excess weight loss of around 70% over a two year period.
Weight loss surgery is a permanent solution to help you lower your body weight. They work by limiting the available space in your stomach, encouraging you into eating smaller meals. Like our gastric balloon procedures, you will be supported by our team of dietitians to help you develop healthy habits that can help to mitigate the risk of obesity related health problems and sustain weight loss in the long term.
Minimum BMI requirements for these procedures are 35. Lower BMIs may be considered if the patient displays two or more comorbidities.
