BodyTite by InMode
BodyTite is a great solution for individuals who are looking to reduce fat without the saggy, wrinkly skin. It also helps improve skin laxity after weight loss or due to aging. BodyTite is a minimally invasive procedure that shapes, contracts, and lifts without the scalpel or large scarring. You are left with surgical-like results without prolonged downtime.
BodyTite uses RFAL (Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis) technology that uses thermal energy or heat to promote skin tightening and removes unwanted fat. This new, state of the art procedure can be used independently or in conjunction with traditional procedures such as liposuction or surgery body lifts such as tummy tucks or brachioplasty, also known as arm lift, a surgery that removes the extra skin and tissue from the back part of the upper arm.

BodyTite FAQs
This procedure is done under local anesthesia, meaning you don’t have to put to sleep. Dr. Diane Bowen makes a small incision, about the size of a grain of rice, in the area to be treated and a cannula is used to emit the radiofrequency energy or heat. Radiofrequency waves are guided upwards through the fatty tissue using another electrode, that monitors the temperature, to ensure the treatment area does not get too hot. As the radiofrequency waves liquify the fat, it is immediately suctioned from the body via the cannula. The radiofrequency waves also stimulate the production of collagen beneath the skin, making the treated area firmer and more toned.
