BodyTite vs. SkinTite Skin Tightening: How Do They Differ?

BodyTite utilizes radio frequency (RF) energy to dissolve fat and tighten one’s skin. Some compare it to liposuction, except it does not require a lengthy recovery or complicated surgical techniques. Instead, thermal energy penetrates the skin to induce fat removal and skin rejuvenation. Dead fat cells dissolve and leave the body as waste. At the same time, the patient’s skin tightens and exudes a more contoured appearance. BodyTite skin tightening targets the abdomen, arms, bra line, love handles, male breasts, knees, and thighs.

SkinTite is an innovative skin tightening procedure that works similarly to BodyTite. However, this unique treatment uses bipolar radio frequency on and under the skin to conduct heat. Once the optimum heat covers the tissue, contractions begin to smooth out lines, scars, and unsightly skin texture. SkinTite works on the same body parts as BodyTite, and can also treat the chin, brow, jowls, and labia.

If you have suffered from sagging skin and fat deposits despite having a healthy lifestyle, BodyTite or SkinTite could be the skin tightening solution for you. Read to learn more about each.

How Skin Tightening Works

At Body Better MD, we use BodyTite and FaceTite systems by InMode to tighten patients’ skin. These tools rely on radio frequency energy to restructure and tighten the skin. The technology allows the skin tightening treatment to go under the skin’s surface and safely deliver the heating RF energy. BodyTite and FaceTite machines have a thin rod that heats the skin tissue’s deeper layers where collagen and elastin live. Ultimately, the heat triggers the body to make more collagen and elastin. The result is a natural rejuvenating response.

Heat therapy also liquefies fat deposits. Therefore, we can contour a person’s fat deposits while tightening the skin to accentuate a slimmer and more toned-looking figure.
