The Levita Magnetic Surgical System introduces a new way to perform minimally invasive procedures using magnetic control.
Instead of adding another incision, a magnet positioned outside the body works with a magnetic grasper inside the abdomen. This allows surgeons to lift and move tissue more freely, improving visibility while reducing scarring and recovery time.
Approved for use in laparoscopic procedures like gallbladder removal, bariatric surgery, and prostatectomy, the Levita Magnetic Surgical System helps surgeons safely access and visualize the surgical area in patients with a BMI between 20 and 60 kg/m². It’s an innovative step forward in precision, efficiency, and patient comfort.
At Total Wellness, our bariatric specialists take time to review all benefits and risks with you so you can make an informed decision.
