Allurion balloon procedures take about 15 minutes.
For the first couple of days after surgery, patients are likely to feel nauseous. By day three, most of these symptoms have usually subsided.
There are some specific dietary recommendations before placement and during the first week after placement as you adapt to the balloon. The weeks that follow the placement are a great time to start making changes to the way you eat. You do not need to make huge changes to eat more healthily all at once, it’s best to set small goals and change your habits a little bit at a time.
