What is the gastric balloon?

The Allurion gastric balloon is an innovative technology offering a non-invasive alternative to bariatric surgery for overweight or obese people.

Unlike surgical procedures such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, the intragastric balloon (or IGB) is introduced into the stomach simply by ingesting a capsule, eliminating the risks and complications associated with surgery and anesthesia.
