Great customer service
I booked a call with an Advisor Dilara Yurdakul. She was very helpful, very informative about the whole process. I had my placement and it was a great experience for me in terms of clinic team, weight loss and after support. I would recommend Allurion, thanks you to you and your staff.

Great consult
I had a consult with Joy, and she was very helpful and informative. I am still thinking about the balloon as my GP has recommended surgery, but I am impressed with the information I was given and will speak to the clinic.

Hi Hope,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
We’re pleased to hear that your conversation with Joy was clear and informative. Taking time to reflect and consider different options is completely understandable, especially when it comes to an important health decision.
Our aim is simply to provide honest, clear information so that everyone can decide what feels right for them.
Thank you for your interest, and we’re glad to hear you’ll be speaking with the clinic when the time feels right.

Not for the faint hearted - but definitely works.
I was very sceptical about the Allurion balloon. I must admit the adverts on Instagram etc. all seemed quite farfetched.
I decided to go through with it, when I was approved to have it paid for through my Superannuation, which meant my only out of pocket expenses would be medication taken during the process.
I have lost approx., 15 kilograms in 18 weeks and my family and friends keep being shocked in my weight/shape change. I am now considering a career change, because I find fitness is something that I can more readily approach. I no longer get joint pains when walking or using stairs, and I am sleeping better and have greater mobility.
The first 6 days after placement were extremely unpleasant. I won't butter this up, I genuinely was heavily considering getting it removed on day 2-4 due to the fact I couldn't eat at all without vomiting. Once day 6 rolled around I realised I was good on soft liquid-ish foods such as custard proteins etc. I lost 4.5kgs within the first week due to my body not really knowing what to do.
The following week it all settled down, and I was able to reintroduce foods that I was more accustomed to. I found I was comfortably able to move to a 1550 calorie diet without feeling hungry, and after 4 weeks on the program started Mounjaro to reduce the snacking that I was tempted by.
I now am fairly confident that my balloon has broken down (I believe I'm on week 19) and my weight has stayed low, and I am remaining on my 1550 calorie diet.
I think this is a great program if you have the flexibility to take about a week off work and are willing to forsake some sleep etc. You will experience reflux, cramps, discomfort and nausea for a good week, and I would suggest getting yourself on Esomeporazole for reflux for the duration of the program.
I have not been as skinny as I am now since I was a teenager, and I have genuinely battled with my weight for a decade.
I will rate this 5 starts and I have suggested the program to some colleagues who are battling their weight loss.
My lessons learnt were:
1. Take a week or perhaps 10 days off work or expectations (have a partner watch the kids etc) because you'll feel really REALLY gross.
2. Consider it a way to help you make the lifestyle change. I found I needed to start buying ready-made meals like MyMuscleChef etc. to start better tracking my calorie intake. and this means I had to use MyFitnessPal to track my intakes to better understand what changes I needed to make to continue this path moving forward
3. USE THE MEDICATION! They give you a lot of medication to reduce cramps and help you sleep - I was a 'trooper' and tried to not use it. By day three my partner told me I was being an idiot and to 'take the damn pills'. I would never tell her, but she was right.
4. Avoid greasy, fatty or oily foods. I have found I cannot eat Pizza at all. But if I go to the pub I can have a steak or even an Entree for a full meal with no issues.
Good luck! I think it's worthwhile.

Dan, thank you so much for taking the time to share such an honest and detailed account of your experience. Reading a review like yours — including both the challenging moments and the positive changes — is incredibly valuable for others who may be considering this journey.
As you clearly explain, the initial phase can be demanding and not always easy. That’s why preparation, clear information, and appropriate support are so important throughout the process.
Feeling more active, sleeping better, and developing a different relationship with movement and food shows that this journey goes well beyond weight alone. That shift in perspective is a key part of long-term change.
Thank you as well for openly sharing the lessons you learned along the way and for recommending the program to others. Feedback like yours helps provide a realistic and responsible view of what this path involves. We wish you all the very best as you continue forward.

Menos kilos, más vida saludable
El programa Allurion transformó mi vida. He logrado bajar 30 kilos en cinco meses, tras la instalación del balón gástrico. Sigo un plan de alimentación saludable y siento que mis días se han liberado de malestares que constantemente me afectaban. Estoy construyendo bienestar ¡Gracias por incentivar a una mejor vida!
