With rising obesity rates worldwide, patients seek effective yet non-invasive interventions. The swallowable weight loss balloon (also known as the Elipse or Allurion balloon) offers:
Non-surgical placement: swallow a capsule—no endoscopy, anesthesia, or sedation needed
Short procedure (~15–30 min) and same-day outpatient discharge
Automatic natural removal after ~4 months via deflation and natural excretion
This makes it ideal for individuals with BMI 27–40 kg/m² who haven’t succeeded with diet and exercise
You ingest a small capsule attached to a catheter.
Once confirmed in your stomach via X-ray, the balloon is filled with ~550 ml fluid
The balloon occupies stomach space → reduces hunger and calorie intake.
It may delay gastric emptying and affect hunger hormones like ghrelin
After ~16 weeks, a release valve deflates the balloon, which then exits the body naturally within weeks
Non-invasive: no surgical or endoscopic procedures required
Short recovery: minimal downtime, most return to daily routine quickly
Proven weight loss: average reduction 10–15% of total body weight in 4 months
Sustainability: up to 95–96% of weight loss maintained at 12 months
Health improvements: reduces risks associated with diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea
Adults with BMI 27–40 kg/m² who didn’t succeed with lifestyle changes
Overweight individuals with comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or fatty liver
Patients seeking obesity treatment without surgery
You’ve had prior bariatric or GI surgeries
Suffering from active gastric ulcers, severe motility issues, or pregnant/lactating.
Medical evaluation: history, exams, possible imaging.
Pre-procedure fasting (12 hours prior) .
Swallow capsule (may be assisted), X-ray confirms position.
Fill with ~550 ml liquid, then remove catheter
Rest on day one; manage mild nausea or discomfort
Follow liquid/soft-food diet first week, then transition to solids under dietitian guidance
Maintain hydration and prescribed eating plan.
Around week 16, the balloon deflates via degradable valve and is passed naturally
Though generally safe, potential issues include:
Nausea/pain in early stages (typically resolve quickly)
Ulceration or heartburn due to pressure – rare
Balloon migration/obstruction (~1–1.5%) may require emergency removal
Hyperinflation, balloon deflation risks
Pancreatitis very rare (Orbera balloon, but noted)
Our MedEase team monitors you throughout and gives clear guidelines on when to seek help.
