Radiofrequency Assisted Lipolysis Soft Tissue Remodeling
Chernoff Cosmetic Surgery is excited to offer innovative BodyTite that improves skin laxity using Radiofrequency Assisted Lipolysis. BodyTite tightens skin by using directional Radio Frequency (RF) energy under the skin during your surgical procedure. BodyTite is similar to laser-assisted liposuction but uses a different type of energy to accurate and uniformly eliminate fat from the target areas of the body. Peer reviewed clinical studies report up to up to 36% tissue contraction after a BodyTite, procedure resulting in a more contoured body. Dr. Chernoff may recommend BodyTite for his surgic patients with significant skin laxity.
What Is BodyTite?
BodyTite is an innovative procedure that uses RFAL Radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology to contract soft tissue and skin. The treatment uses three-dimensional tissue remodeling for lifting and tightening of the skin, in addition to radiofrequency assisted lipolysis for fat melting. The volumetric heating creates fat coagulation to reduce fat without sagging skin. Results can be seen immediately, with additional noticeable improvement in the following 6 to 12 months.
In addition to BodyTite, we offer a similar procedure for improvement of the neck, jowls, and chin, called FaceTite.
How Is a BodyTite Procedure Performed?
The BodyTite procedure is an outpatient surgical procedure performed using light general anesthetic. Dr. Chernoff inserts a probe through very small incisions in the treatment area to heat your skin in the dermis layer, the underlying connective tissue and in fat areas. The liquified fat is then removed though a thin cannula with not injury to surrounding tissue. Recovery ranges from a few days or up to a week, or more, depending upon the area(s) treated. Patients can expect to see results immediately with additional improvements over time. Combined with liposuction, BodyTite safely and effectively removes excess fat and improves skin laxity.
Who Is a Candidate for BodyTite & What Areas Can Be Treated?
BodyTite is a good option for men and women who are looking to reduce fat while also wanting to tighten and lift loose skin, which is often the result of weight loss, aging or pregnancy. If you have sagging skin and laxity BodyTite delivers exceptional results without surgery. Multiple areas of the body can be treated with BodyTite. The most common areas are:
- Abdomen
- Back
- Bra Fat
- Arms (upper)
- Breasts (male & female)
- Thighs
- Knees
BodyTitle is performed with liposuction to help patients achieve their body improvement goals. For facial rejuvenation of the neck, jowls, and chin, ask Dr. Chernoff and his skincare specialist about FaceTite. Prior to any treatment or procedure, Dr. Chernoff or one of our trained and certified Health Care Providers determine if you are a candidate, review the risk and benefits, and provide all possible treatment alternatives.
