FAQ

Medical weight loss clinics work with the help of a healthcare professional, usually a doctor who uses their knowledge and medical experience to guide patients in achieving their long-term weight loss and health goals safely and effectively. The medical professional develops personalised health plans tailored to your individual circumstances, incorporating factors such as weight, diet, training, lifestyle, and medical history.

This customised plan will contain helpful information such as personalised workout regimens and specialised nutritional ‘diet’ plans to help individuals achieve their weight loss goals. 

The type of doctors you should see for weight loss are licenced and experienced healthcare professionals that specialise in the area of medical weight loss such as Bariatricians (Bariatric Physicians, Bariatric Healthcare Providers, Bariatric Surgeons), Endocrinologists, obesity medicine specialists and allied health practitioners such as Nutritionists, Dietitians and Exercise Physiologists. These healthcare providers can help guide you to the best weight loss tools and solutions for you and your weight loss journey.  

You may also need to see an endocrinologist who specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to metabolism or hormones. 

Some might say that prescription weight-loss drugs such as Bupropion-naltrexone (Contrave), Liraglutide (Saxenda, Orlistat Xenical, Alli), Phentermine-topiramate (Qsymia), Semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) or Setmelanotide (Imcivree) are the best medical way to lose weight. They can be used in conjunction with diet and exercise to help with obesity management although they can have side effects such as insomnia, increased blood pressure, fast heart rate, restlessness and withdrawal symptoms. 

The best medical way to lose weight is with the assistance of surgical and non-surgical weight loss solutions such as  the Allurion Balloon, Orbera Balloon, Endoscopic Sleeve, Laparoscopic Sleeve, Gastric Bypass 

Non-surgical weight loss solutions, such as the Allurion balloon stand out as highly effective methods for shedding pounds that can lead to a notable 10-15% reduction in total body weight within just 16 weeks! Renowned worldwide for their safety and efficacy, these solutions not only contribute to significant weight reduction but also, as a result of your weight loss, can lead to many health benefits. In fact, losing just 10% of your excess weight can improve blood sugar control, reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels, improve lung function and breathlessness, reduce the frequency of sleep apnoea, and improve sleep quality and daytime drowsiness. It can also alleviate the discomfort associated with osteoarthritis, and back and joint pain.  

Although, GLP-1 agonists and medications such as phentermine, liraglutide (Saxenda), semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic), and tirzepatide (Zepbound) are currently the strongest and most effective anti-obesity medications, they can cause side effects. Studies into the most effective Short-Term Weight Loss With Anti-Obesity Medications indicate that (Phentermine-topiramate extended-release) is the most effective weight loss medication with the highest percentage of body weight loss —an average of 3.75 kg throughout a study.

However, studies have shown that the Allurion balloon, a non-surgical weight loss solution can lead to a remarkable 4.5kgs in BMI reduction making it a more effective weight loss treatment than phentermine. The Allurion Balloon is a new technique using soft, medical-grade, silicone which is encased within a vegan capsule with a thin catheter attached to it. The deflated Allurion Balloon is filled with a sterile saline solution and is placed in your stomach in a quick and painless procedure.  

Some might say that the most effective weight loss medication is phentermine (Phentermine-topiramate extended-release), with a study on The Benefit Of Short-Term Weight Loss With Anti-Obesity Medications In Real-World Clinical Practice indicating that it was the most effective pharmaceutical weight loss medication tested, with the highest percentage of body weight loss —an average of 8.3 lb (3.75 kg) throughout a study. This is followed by Bupropion-naltrexone (Contrave), Semaglutide, Liraglutide and Naltrexone-bupropion extended-release. However, it’s crucial to note that weight loss medications can bring about side effects such as insomnia, increased blood pressure, a rapid heart rate, restlessness, and withdrawal symptoms. 

However, clinical studies have shown that on average, the Allurion Balloon leads to a BMI reduction of 4.5 and a remarkable 10-15% total body weight loss in just 16 weeks. Surpassing the efficacy of phentermine. Moreover, for enhanced results, a second balloon can be placed upon completing the initial program. The Allurion Balloon not only achieves substantial weight loss but has established its reputation as a safe and effective method that can help instil healthy habits that can last a lifetime.  

There are many ways that people might suggest you can lose 5kg in a month including through lifestyle and diet adjustments, such as incorporating cardio, reducing refined carbs, calorie tracking, and increasing fruit and vegetable intake. However, often fad diets or quick and easy weight loss regimens can be hard to maintain. The best way to lose weight is to do it slowly and opt for a steady, gradual weight loss approach by making small, achievable healthy lifestyle changes and healthy eating habits. This can be achieved by incrementing a well-balanced and nutritious diet and establishing a positive relationship with food combined with regular exercise which can facilitate long-term and sustainable results while promoting a healthy mindset and overall well-being. 

Non-surgical weight loss solutions can also help you lose weight and keep it off. Clinical studies have shown that non-surgical weight loss solutions such as the Allurion balloon can help you lose between 10-15% on average of your total body weight in just 16 weeks.  Additionally, a second balloon can be placed upon the completion of the first program to enhance the results.  

However, we know that no one method suits all and sometimes you need a tailored approach to help you lose and maintain a healthy weight. We offer a comprehensive range of both surgical and non-surgical weightloss solutions including the Allurion Balloon, Orbera Balloon, Endoscopic Sleeve, Laparoscopic Sleeve, Gastric Bypass and our medically aided CompleteCare Program.
