BodyTite™

BodyTite™ is a body contouring and skin tightening method that heats the deep layer of the skin, simultaneously removing fat and tightening the skin with nearly immediate results. As a minimally invasive procedure, BodyTite™ gives you a sleeker silhouette without other body contouring surgeries' side effects and recovery time.

How does BodyTite™ work?

BodyTite™ is an innovation in minimally invasive body contouring procedures. The treatment utilizes directional radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to heat the deep layer of the skin, removing fat and tightening the skin simultaneously.

With one treatment, BodyTite™:

  • Gently melts and removes fat
  • Coagulates blood vessels
  • Tightens the skin
  • Encourages new collagen and elastin production

As an energy-assisted liposuction method, BodyTite™ slims and tightens the following areas:

  • The stomach
  • Love handles or flanks
  • Thighs and knees
  • Arms, or “bat wings”
  • The bra roll
  • Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breasts

BodyTite™ vs. Liposuction

If you’ve been considering surgical body contouring but want a less-invasive procedure, here is a comparison of BodyTite™ and traditional liposuction.

By inserting a small tube under your skin, liposuction breaks up and removes fat cells from targeted areas of your body. A laser then delivers energy to the fat cells, causing them to break apart before being suctioned out.

BodyTite™ similarly reduces fat; however, the difference is the type of energy used to break down the fat cells. While liposuction uses a laser, BodyTite™ uses Radio-Frequency Assisted Liposuction (or RFAL) to melt fat cells and tighten the skin.

Additionally, traditional liposuction does not have any skin-tightening benefits, resulting in sagging skin after the procedure. BodyTite™ improves skin laxity, providing up to 40% firmer, more toned results than traditional lipo.

Some other differences between BodyTite™ and liposuction include the following:

  • BodyTite™ is less-invasive than traditional lipo
  • Liposuction requires general anesthesia, while BodyTite™ usually only requires local anesthesia
  • BodyTite™ lasts approximately thirty minutes, while lipo operations take between one and four hours
  • BodyTite™ leaves minimal scars that fade with time, while lipo produces more prominent scars
  • Liposuction recovery generally includes bruising and swelling to the area, some of which is deep tissue bruising that can last for several weeks
  • While BodyTite™ patients may still experience bruising and swelling, the level of discomfort is significantly reduced
  • Downtime for traditional lipo is up to two weeks, and you also may wear a compression garment for up to six weeks
  • Most BodyTite™ patients experience 2-3 days of downtime and achieve full recovery within a couple of days
  • After BodyTite™, a compression garment may also be worn but is usually removed after two weeks
  • Traditional liposuction produces results in three to nine months, with the best results after one year
  • BodyTite™ patients may see results immediately after the procedure, with the best results noticeable after six months

BodyTite™ benefits

The life-changing advantages of BodyTite™ include the following:

  • No scarring
  • Skin tightening included
  • Minimal recovery time
  • More smooth and even contouring
  • Fewer side effects compared to liposuction or surgery
