It is well known that the Allurion balloon is an endoscopic, non-surgical procedure for weight loss which is not designed to be a permanent implant in the body. Depending on the size of the inserted balloon, it will take approximately 16 weeks before the balloon is retrieved though this is done through a minimally invasive procedure. The types of skins can be removed easily, and the process generally does not last more than a few minutes, and therefore the patients can go back to their normal activities.
