How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

100% Bad Choice

I recently had the Allurion balloon inserted, hoping it would help with my weight loss journey. Unfortunately, my experience has been far from positive. From the very beginning, I suffered from severe gastric reflux.

The constant stomach pain left me feeling miserable and tired most of the time.

The bloating was persistent and uncomfortable, making it difficult to go about my daily activities. Zero energy. I often felt nauseous, which significantly impacted my ability to function normally. This sick feeling lasted throughout the entire duration of having the balloon.

Overall, the Allurion balloon caused more discomfort than it was worth. I cannot recommend this procedure due to the significant negative side effects I experienced.

I did loose 25 pounds. It wasn't worth it.
