BodyTite

BodyTite is a family of minimally invasive surgical technologies by InMode that uses bi-directional radiofrequency energy to tighten skin. It is another tool in the surgeon’s hand to provide superior results, while minimizing your downtime and eliminating large, ugly scars.

By precisely targeting the connective tissue layer under your skin and delivering powerful computer controlled energy, Dr. Baker is able to provide a solution for patients who have saggy skin but don’t want the downtime or scars of older, traditional skin tightening procedures. BodyTite reviews prove how effective the treatment is for areas that appear flabby despite efforts to tone up with diet and exercise. The problem in these cases is not just excess fat, but also lax skin that allows the area to sag. BodyTite corrects the loose skin for a more firm and natural appearance.

About

Bodytite and Facetite are a family of technologies that provide solutions for the entire body. Loose skin from the midface, jowls, neck down to the breasts, abdomen, back, arms, buttocks, thighs and even knees can be treated with Bodytite. Older techniques such as tummy tucks, arm lifts, thigh lifts, brachioplasties, and even breast lifts can now be replaced in many cases by Bodytite technology. Just as many moms in the past have opted for a “mommy makeover”, they now have a minimally invasive option to produce similar results, but with less downtime and without the ugly scars. Since the treatment doesn’t involve cutting, has little to no downtime and doesn’t require general anesthesia, almost any area of the body that has loose skin can be treated.

Benefits

• Minimally invasive
• Practically scar free
• Produces similar results to traditional procedures like tummy tuck, arm lift, neck lift, thigh lift but with dramatically less downtime
• Does not require general anesthesia for procedure

Procedure

You do not need to be under general anesthesia for your Bodytite® procedure. We provide some medication that allows you to relax and many patients nap during the process. We will make an entry point about half the size of a pencil eraser. Fluid that contains numbing medicine is inserted through this tiny opening. The BodyTite® device is designed with two probes that emit radiofrequency energy. The first probe stays outside the skin, and the second is inserted into the subcutaneous layer, under the skin. Care is taken to place the inner probe into the connective support layer. The device then precisely places energy into the skin to reorganize and tighten collagen fibers. This is performed in a grid like pattern across the treatment area to ensure all sections of skin are uniformly tightened.

Recovery

You will have soreness like you had an intense workout for a few days after the procedure. Most people can return to work within a couple days.  You will have some minor discomfort that can be managed with non-prescription medications. Swelling and bruising may last up to two weeks. Final results can take several months as the collagen fibers in skin reorganize and slowly contract throughout the healing process.
