Would much weight could I reasonably lose with Allurion?

Question

I read that studies show an average weight loss of 28 pounds (12.7 kg) and an average BMI reduction of 4.2 points on Allurion. Would it be reasonable for a patient with a higher BMI to expect to lose more than this with the help of the Allurion Balloon?

Hello, I hope you are well. Yes, it is likely for you to experience greater weght loss. It would also depend on your diet, exercise habits, and your overall follow up with your bariatric team. However, remember you would need to be evaluated by a certified Bariatric Surgeon, as it is possible other procedures would be a better fit for you. Hope this information was useful. Don't hesitate to contact us for any additional information.
