BodyTite and SkinTite: Non-Surgical Skin Tightening and Fat Reduction

The scaffolding supporting our skin revolves around particular proteins called collagen and elastin. These proteins in the subdermal plan are abundant during our youth, giving us the tight, supple, smooth appearance characteristic of flawless skin.

As we age, these collagen and elastin proteins grow brittle and less flexible. Additionally, the production of these proteins begins to slow. Skin loses the strong support in the subdermal plane it once had, and skin tone starts to lax. This collagen loss signals the most noticeable aging signs, such as sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of healthy lift and texture.

The BodyTite and FaceTite machines by InMode use Radio Frequency (RF) energy to revitalize skin from within the subdermal plane. The unique structure of the handheld device allows the skin tightening treatment to penetrate just below the skin’s surface to deliver the heating RF energy safely. From this vantage point, the thin rod of the BodyTite and FaceTite systems heat the deeper layers of skin tissue where elastin and collagen are situated. This heating energy production stimulates the body to boost the production of collagen and elastin. The end result is the encouragement of the treatment area to cultivate a natural rejuvenating response.

This RF energy also stimulates the skin tightening therapy to commence by causing the skin to contract, tighten, and restructure. The heat therapy also has the bonus of liquefying fat deposits. Thus, the contouring of bulky fat deposits and skin tightening effects come together to create a slimmer, more taut silhouette. 

BodyTite

The skin tightening therapy of the BodyTite applicator is ideal for treating a larger area of the body such as;

• Abdomen (lower and upper areas)
• Flanks (love handles)
• Upper Legs ( thighs, fat above knees)
• Arms (batwing area)
• Back (Bra Bulge)
• Chest (Man Boobs)
• Excess skin after pregnancy or weight loss

Apart from skin tightening, BodyTite has the bonus of being a minimally invasive body sculpting procedure. This is due to the coagulation of fat that occurs while the directional RF energy is remodeling the skin tissue. The process results in fat loss through radiofrequency assisted lipolysis (RFAL) and boosts this skin tightening treatment’s aesthetic results.

FaceTite

FaceTite provides similar therapeutic benefits to BodyTite. However, with a smaller, low profile applicator, it can treat smaller areas of the body more precisely. FaceTite effectively treats areas of the lower face such as;

• sagging jowls
• double chin
• loose neck skin
• Wrinkles around mouth
• Loose skin around the eye area

FaceTite is an ideal non-surgical alternative to a more invasive procedure, such as a mini facelift or neck lift.

The best results customarily are seen after following a treatment plan of 4-6 sessions. Treatments administered in succession with a month in between have optimal effects. As always, individual results may vary.

Each uniquely tailored, skin tightening treatment plan addresses the individual patient’s specific needs. Because of that, the desired outcome you seek and the number of treatments required to achieve your aesthetic goals will determine the final cost.

During your initial consultation with Better Body MD, we will discuss the areas you would like to see an improvement in skin tone and fat reduction. If you are an ideal candidate for this skin tightening procedure, we will create a treatment plan for you that is both budget-conscious and effective.
