How Does BodyTite Compare to Surgery?
Before BodyTite, your option for body sculpting was limited to surgeries like tummy tucks or thigh lifts, which involve significant scars and long recovery times. BodyTite, using radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL), offers a middle ground by removing fat deposits while simultaneously tightening the skin, resulting in less trauma and quicker recovery.
The other benefit of BodyTite compared to the traditional alternatives is the lack of scarring. Most surgery involves large scars along the body that can be minimized through other treatments, but will not disappear completely. BodyTite involves a very tiny incision that is virtually invisible once it has healed.
A note from Charity: “One thing I will say about BodyTite is that if I had known the results were so amazing, I would have gotten it instead of the plastic surgery procedure I did get to minimize my waistline. I am still very happy with my results, but I do have a large scar along my abdomen that would not have happened with BodyTite. Now, if a patient asks me about how to manage stubborn fat I’ll definitely be telling them about BodyTite.”
What is BodyTite?
BodyTite is a semi-invasive procedure that utilizes radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) technology to target fat and tighten skin beneath the surface. By addressing sagging skin, eliminating small pockets of stubborn fat, and enhancing the firmness of underlying tissue, BodyTite achieves beautifully contoured and sculpted results with a natural look.
What are the Benefits of BodyTite?

How Does the BodyTite Technology Work?
BodyTite employs RFAL (radiofrequency-assisted liposuction) technology, which uses bipolar radiofrequency energy to heat and tighten skin while melting fat deposits. The handpiece sends electrical currents between two probes: one probe beneath the skin and one on the surface. This controlled energy path ensures precise, efficient fat removal and skin tightening, while also stimulating collagen production for long-lasting results.
During the procedure, a local anesthetic is used to ensure your comfort throughout. Depending on the area being addressed, the procedure typically takes between 30 to 90 minutes. For optimal results, we combine BodyTite with Morpheus8. This combination enhances skin texture and tightness by working from both inside and out, providing a comprehensive approach to achieving your desired results.
What Can I Expect in Terms of Downtime and Results?
- Mild Pain, Swelling, and Bruising: These are normal and should subside within a few weeks, depending on your anatomy.
- Results: Initial results are visible within 3 months as swelling decreases, with continued improvement and collagen growth for up to a year.
- Long-Term Benefits: BodyTite can cause 25-45% tissue contraction, with results lasting for years if weight is maintained.
