Body Tite is a modern and safe technique of skin tightening. It may or may not be combined with liposuction. It is a radio frequency assisted lipolysis (RFAL) and it acts on two levels:
A) On the fat under the skin in order to tighten the skin, even when it is very thin, using the right level of thermal energy. This way we can see an immediate tightening on areas around the arms, the knees, the inner part of the thighs and the tummy. In addition to all that, by tightening the area around the waist we also have a lifting effect on the buttocks and by tightening the chest area we also have a lifting effect on the breasts.
B) On smaller or bigger deposits of fat all over the body (arms, inner thighs, waist, thighs, tummy, knees, back) in order to target the fat with high tension radio frequency and melt it with the help of thermal energy. If the fat pocket is too big then a surgical liposuction may follow the Body Tite treatment. Combining Body Tite and a traditional liposuction gives us the possibility to perfectly sculpt the body and, at the same time, tighten it with minimal side effects, such as bruising. Body Tite can be performed under sedation, local or general anesthesia, depending on the size of the problem and the area treated.
What exactlly is body tite?

Facts I need to know
Body Tite is an FDA approved, revolutionary procedure that combines lipolysis with skin tightening. Thanks to radio frequency energy and with the help of a small cannula Body Tite targets local fat and liquifies it while boosting fibroblasts in order for them to firm and smooth the skin. A Body Tite treatment can be combined with a liposuction if we want to remove the liquified fat easily and with less bleeding. Body Tite is ideal for areas where there is a mild skin laxity and, when performed on people with no fat excess it can be applied without liposuction. The treatment can be performed at the doctor’s office but, when it concerns large areas, it must be performed in a clinic. It can take from 1 to 1 ½ hours, depending on the case and it can be carried out under sedation, general or local anesthesia. Incisions are small and do not require stitches.
Recovery Time
Bruising, mild swellind and tenderness may occur after a Body Tite treatment. All symptoms go away quicklly and the patient can return to his work and his everyday activities immediately. Results are visible and improve over the next 3 to 6 months. What is more important, they last from 7 to 10 years.
