Gastric balloon & weight loss: your questions
Who is the gastric balloon intended for?
The gastric balloon is intended for people who want to lose weight as part of a structured medical program. A preliminary consultation allows us to assess the suitability of the procedure based on the patient's profile, BMI, medical history, and goals.
What is the difference between the Allurion balloon and the traditional gastric balloon?
The Allurion (Elipse) balloon does not require surgery or endoscopy and is eliminated naturally. The traditional gastric balloon is a temporary device that is inserted and removed under medical supervision. The choice depends on the patient's profile and weight loss goals.

Weight loss varies from patient to patient. It depends in particular on medical follow-up, nutritional support, and personal commitment. The balloon is an aid that is part of a comprehensive approach.
Are weight loss injections suitable for everyone?
Injections for weight loss require prior medical evaluation. They are not suitable for everyone and should always be offered in a supervised medical setting, with personalized follow-up.
Is there any follow-up after a weight loss solution has been implemented?
Yes. Whatever solution is considered, medical and nutritional monitoring is essential. It helps support weight loss, adapt eating habits, and ensure long-term results.
