Body Contouring

What is Body Contouring?

Body contouring refers to a variety of cosmetic procedures aimed at altering the shape, contours, and overall appearance of the body. These procedures are often used to address stubborn pockets of fat, loose or excess skin, and other aesthetic concerns that may not respond to diet and exercise alone. 

Body contouring techniques can be surgical or non-surgical and may target specific areas of the body such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, buttocks, or face. 

Some common body contouring procedures include liposuction, tummy tucks (abdominoplasty), arm lifts, breast lifts, thigh lifts, and non-invasive treatments BodyTite and FaceTite laser therapy. Body contouring can help improve body proportions, enhance definition, and boost self-confidence by creating a more sculpted and toned appearance. 

It's important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon or cosmetic specialist to discuss your goals, suitability for various procedures, and expected outcomes before undergoing any body contouring treatment.

What is BodyTite Treatment?

BodyTite is a minimally invasive body contouring procedure that uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) technology to simultaneously remove excess fat and tighten the skin. This innovative technique is designed to achieve smoother, more sculpted contours with minimal scarring and downtime compared to traditional liposuction procedures.

During a BodyTite procedure, a small cannula is inserted under the skin through tiny incisions. The cannula delivers radiofrequency energy to target and liquefy fat cells, making them easier to remove. At the same time, the heat from the radiofrequency energy promotes collagen production, leading to skin tightening and improved elasticity.

BodyTite is commonly used to treat areas of the body prone to sagging skin or stubborn fat deposits, such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and neck. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, reducing the risks associated with general anesthesia, and typically results in minimal scarring and a shorter recovery period compared to traditional surgical techniques.

While BodyTite can provide effective body contouring results, it's essential to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon or cosmetic specialist to determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure and to discuss your specific goals and expectations.

Contouring for the Face with FaceTite

FaceTite is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses radiofrequency-assisted technology to tighten and lift the skin of the face and neck. This innovative treatment is designed to address mild to moderate skin laxity, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and contour the jawline without the need for traditional facelift surgery.

During a FaceTite procedure, a small cannula is inserted under the skin through tiny incisions. The cannula delivers radiofrequency energy to target the underlying tissues, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. This results in improved skin firmness, enhanced definition along the jawline, and a more youthful facial appearance.

FaceTite is a versatile procedure that can be used to address various areas of the face and neck, such as the jowls, neck laxity, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. The treatment is performed under local anesthesia, allowing for a more comfortable experience with minimal downtime compared to traditional facelift surgery.

As with any cosmetic procedure, it's essential to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon or cosmetic specialist to determine if FaceTite is the right option for your aesthetic goals and individual needs. They can assess your candidacy for the procedure and provide personalized recommendations to help you achieve natural-looking results and a rejuvenated facial appearance.
