If you’ve been putting off weight loss surgery because of concerns about pain, scarring, or recovery time, you’re not alone. Many Garland patients want results without a highly invasive procedure.
That’s exactly why magnetic weight loss surgery is getting attention.
At Total Wellness & Bariatrics, we use advanced magnetic technology during laparoscopic procedures to reduce incisions, limit discomfort, and help you recover faster.
Magnetic weight loss surgery uses the Levita Magnetic Surgical System, a technology that allows surgeons to move and position tissue without adding additional surgical entry points.
During surgery, a small magnetic device is placed inside your abdomen. A second magnet outside your body guides it, allowing your surgeon to move tissue without adding another incision.
That means better visibility for the surgeon and less impact on your body.
This technology, known as the Levita Magnetic Surgical System, is approved for use in bariatric procedures and helps make surgery more precise and less invasive.

Like any surgical procedure, magnetic surgery comes with potential risks such as infection, tissue or abdominal wall injury, or the possibility of requiring additional surgery. In clinical studies, the most common side effect reported was minor surface bruising. Magnetic procedures are not recommended for patients with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other electronic or ferromagnetic implants.
