Why Turkey for a Gastric Balloon?
Turkey combines internationally trained physicians, modern medical infrastructure, and competitive pricing within a short flight of Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia.
Key facts for 2026:
- Turkey ranks among the top countries globally for Allurion Tier 1 clinical outcomes
- Several Turkish clinics rank in the global top 20 for patient results (TBWL)
- Istanbul and major cities have multiple FDA-listed Allurion-authorised centres
What's Included in the Allurion Programme?
The Allurion system is more than the balloon itself. A full programme typically includes:
| Component | Details |
|---|---|
| Balloon placement | Swallowed (no endoscopy, no anaesthesia) — ~20 minutes |
| Smart scale | Bluetooth-enabled, syncs to app |
| Activity tracker | Wristband for daily monitoring |
| Mobile app | Nutrition + progress tracking |
| Health coaching | Remote dietitian/nurse support |
| Follow-up visits | Scheduled check-ins during 16 weeks |
When comparing prices, always confirm which of these components are included.
What Affects the Cost?
Clinic tier and location: Istanbul city-centre clinics may have different pricing from provincial centres.
Programme scope: Some clinics offer extended coaching (6–12 months beyond balloon removal). This significantly affects total cost.
Currency: Turkey uses Turkish Lira (TRY). International patients often benefit from favourable exchange rates — but verify the current rate and whether invoicing is in TRY or EUR/USD.
Additional tests: Pre-procedure blood work, endoscopy (if indicated), or specialist consultations may be billed separately.
Clinical Outcomes You Can Expect
Based on published data:
- Average total body weight loss (TBWL): ~13–16% over 16 weeks¹²
- No surgery, no anaesthesia, outpatient procedure
- Programme designed to sustain results beyond balloon removal
