Medical Weight Loss Programmes
The Allurion Smart Capsule (formerly known as the Elipse Balloon) is a next-generation swallowable balloon pill designed to support safe, effective weight loss — without surgery, endoscopy, or anaesthesia.
Also referred to as a swallowable gastric balloon or smart capsule balloon, this innovative treatment is taken like a capsule and placed in the stomach during a simple outpatient visit.
Approved for individuals with a BMI between 30 and 40, the Allurion Smart Capsule offers a structured, non-surgical alternative to weight loss injections and bariatric surgery.
At Allure Weightloss Dubai, we deliver this as part of a fully medically supervised programme, ensuring safe, sustainable results.
What is the Allurion Smart Capsule?
The Allurion Smart Capsule (previously known as the Elipse Balloon) is a swallowable balloon system that helps reduce hunger and portion sizes. It Is:
- Swallowed as a capsule (balloon pill)
- Filled inside the stomach under X-ray guidance
- Left in place for approximately 4 months
- Naturally emptied and passed without removal
- Helping patients maintain consistent, controlled weight loss over time
Unlike traditional gastric balloons, it:
- Does not require surgery
- Does not require endoscopy
- Does not require anaesthesia
How the Swallowable Balloon Works
The swallowable balloon pill works by occupying space in the stomach, helping you:
• feel full sooner
• reduce portion sizes
• control appetite
This allows you to develop healthier habits while achieving meaningful weight loss.
After approximately 16 weeks, the balloon naturally empties and passes from the body.
The First Week with the Allurion Smart Capsule
Day
1
In order to allow your stomach to adjust to the balloon, stick to cold clear fluids i.e. water, juice and broth, for the first day or two.
Days
2-3
Once clear fluids are tolerated well, you can begin to introduce different fluids such as protein shakes, yoghurt drinks, skimmed milk, and weak coffee or tea (preferably decaffeinated).
Days 4-5
By days 3–4, you should be able to tolerate soft foods, such as mashed potatoes and scrambled eggs.
Days
6-7
By days 6–7, most patients are able to return to a normal-textured diet, including solid foods. Certain foods may still need to be avoided initially, and your dietitian will guide you on this as you progress.
Who is the Allurion Balloon Suitable For?
The Allurion Smart Capsule is suitable for individuals:
- With a BMI between 30 and 40
- Who have struggled to lose weight through diet alone
- Who want a non-surgical solution
- Who prefer to avoid long-term medications
Each patient undergoes a medical assessment before proceeding.
What Results Can You Expect?
Patients typically achieve:
• 12–18% total body weight loss
• reduction in visceral fat
• improved metabolic health
Results are enhanced when combined with structured support.
