Looking for an effective, maintainable way to lose weight?
At LivingCare, we understand that losing weight can be challenging and often requires a multi-disciplinary approach. That's why we offer the Allurion Gastric Balloon, to help you achieve your weight loss goals.
The Allurion Programme is a non-surgical weight loss treatment that involves placing a small, swallowable balloon into your stomach. The balloon takes up space in your stomach, making you feel full quicker and reducing your appetite.
The Allurion gastric balloon is an effective weight loss solution that can help you lose up to 20-30% of your excess weight in just six months.
After the Allurion Gastric Balloon passes, patients are provided with a comprehensive weight loss maintenance plan to help them sustain their weight loss results. This includes dietary and lifestyle recommendations.
Throughout your Allurion journey you will be provided with a range of devices that are integrated into the programme as a standard feature to support you in monitoring your personal progress and changes.
Measures weight, BMI, Body fat, Muscle mass, Bone, Body water, BMR, Visceral fat.
Track your personal progress using the Allurion App. This information can also be shared and monitored by your dedicated clinical team.
We're always on hand, so get in touch and we'll get back to you straight away.
Firstly, you will have a free pre-screening telephone consultation with our team. During this, we will assess your needs and discuss if you will be suitable to proceed with the treatment. If deemed suitable, we will proceed with scheduling a video call with Dr. Noor Mohammed to further discuss the treatment and address any questions or concerns you may have.
Arrange an appointment with our dietician Maisie, this will help us to finalise the procedure date and address any specific dietary considerations.
A non refundable deposit of £1000 is required at this stage to reserve your dietician and procedure appointment slot. The remaining balance of £3000 must be paid no later than 10 days before the procedure. You have the option to make this payment conveniently through our online payment link or by contacting our team over the phone.
On placement day, we will help you set up a some scales. You will then swallow a balloon capsule with water, connected to a thin tube that can be guided down your throat. An X-Ray will be done to ensure the balloon is positioned right in your stomach. Once confirmed, the balloon will be filled with saline and another X-Ray will verify its placement before detaching the balloon and removing the tube.
You will be contacted the day after your procedure by the specialist nurse to see how you are managing with your Allurion balloon. Following your placement you will have 6 virtual dietician appointments with Maisie to your track progress and to cover any queries or concerns.
