Which option fits you?

The choice depends on your BMI, your health and what you want. It is made in consultation — never alone in front of a screen.

Non-surgical

The Allurion gastric balloon

The surgeon

25 years of digestive surgery

Formerly a resident and chef de clinique in the Paris hospital system, Dr Barei spent four years in the digestive and bariatric surgery department at Bichat hospital — the first of its kind in France.

Since 2017 he has been among the first surgeons in France to offer the Allurion gastric balloon, working with the nutrition team led by Stéphanie Hubsch.
