The whole device: two small magnets, small enough to swallow with water. Used since 2021 in the US, Canada and Europe.
How MagDI™ Works
-
1. While you're asleep. You swallow the first magnet with water that morning. Dr Loy places the second. They hold two parts of your gut gently together. About an hour, one night in hospital.
-
2. Over two to three weeks. A short new path for food forms between them. You won't feel it. Then the magnets pass out naturally, still together, and nothing is left inside you.
-
3. From then on. Part of what you eat takes the shorter route. Your hunger falls, smaller meals feel like enough, and the weight comes off without a daily fight.
Used since 2021 in the US, Canada and Europe. How much you'd lose depends on where you start, and Dr Loy will tell you honestly at your free assessment.
Worried About An Operation? That's Normal.
We know how hard this has been for you. Here is what we tell everyone who asks.
- “It's a big operation.”
- It isn't. Far less invasive than a big weight loss operation: nothing is cut away or stapled, and you're home the next morning.
- “I'd be out of action for weeks.”
- Recovery is quick. Up the next day, back at a desk job in one to two weeks.
- “Something could go wrong.”
- Less can go wrong when nothing is cut. You're in an accredited hospital with a full team, and we look after you afterwards.
- “It's forever.”
- Your gut is kept whole, so the new path can be closed again if it's ever needed.
- “I have type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure.”
- That's often why people come. As the weight comes off, both often ease.
- “I'll be judged.”
- Not here. You'll be listened to, not lectured.
