Is BodyTite Permanent? How Our Treatment Can Remove Fat for Good
BodyTite is a popular way to reduce fat and achieve a slimmer look. People love this treatment because it allows them to achieve long-lasting, noticeable results. During your treatment session, we will use Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis, or RFAL, to remove excess fat in the target area.
This technique will increase the temperature of your fat cells. Increased heat can destroy the fat cells without harming the surrounding tissues. After the cells are destroyed, we may suction them out with a thin tube. We may also let your body remove them through natural processes.
A Lasting Solution
BodyTite has fat reduction effects of this treatment are permanent. Once the destroyed fat cells are removed, they will be gone for good. The treated fat cells will not return. That said, you will achieve the best results from this treatment if you follow a healthy diet and exercise regularly after your treatment. Many people find that achieving a slimmer, more attractive body motivates them to adopt healthier habits.
Why Do I Have Loose Skin and Unwanted Fat?
Many people gain fat and experience changes in their skin as they become older. People can develop these issues for several reasons.
Unwanted Fat
As people age, their hormone levels, metabolisms, and other aspects of their bodies change. Imbalanced hormones and other age-related changes can make it very difficult to lose unwanted fat. In particular, many people have fat deposits on their stomachs, thighs, and other areas that are very difficult to reduce through lifestyle changes.
Loose Skin
The aging process also makes people more likely to develop loose skin. People can experience negative changes in the elasticity and strength of their skin as they age. This is partly because older people have lower levels of collagen and elastin. Sun exposure, genetics, and lifestyle choices may also increase people’s chances of developing lax skin. Further, repeatedly gaining and losing weight can cause people to have excess skin on their bodies. Fortunately, this innovative technology can improve your loose skin and reduce your unwanted fat.
How Does This Treatment Work?
This is an easy treatment that allows people to tighten their skin and reduce unwanted fat in a minimally invasive manner.
A Dual Method
BodyTite treatment device uses two probes. These probes work together to tighten your skin and reduce your fat. During your treatment, your medical provider will make a tiny incision in your target area and insert one probe into your body. They will move the other probe along the surface of your skin.
The probes will treat your skin with radio-frequency energy. This energy will produce heat. Increasing the temperature of your fat cells will cause them to become liquid. In addition, the heat will make your collagen fibers tighten and contract. It will also encourage your body to make more collagen.
Achieving Results
Your medical provider may use a thin tube to remove your dead fat cells. If you wish to remove a smaller amount of fat, we can also let your body eliminate the dead cells gradually. This is an automatic process that your body will perform on its own. After the cells are eliminated, your treatment area will appear slimmer and more contoured. Further, as your body produces more collagen, your skin will tighten and firm.
What Areas of My Body Can This Treatment Target?
This is a versatile technology that can address loose skin and unwanted fat on many areas of your body. In particular, we can use this body contouring treatment on your chest, knees, thighs, and stomach. During your initial meeting, we will discuss whether this treatment can achieve benefits in your desired areas.
What Are the Benefits of This Body Contouring Method?
A Minimally Invasive Option
In the past, people often had to go through complex procedures like liposuction to reduce their unwanted fat. Although these methods are easy and effective, they aren’t right for everyone.
Some people are afraid of receiving large incisions that could lead to scarring. Other people cannot afford to take weeks off to recover and heal after these procedures. Fortunately, BodyTite is a quick, minimally invasive treatment that doesn’t require you to visit the hospital or take weeks off from your job and other activities.
Proven Results
Scientific studies have shown that this treatment can significantly improve your appearance. In particular, peer-reviewed clinical studies showed that this treatment can contract people’s tissues up to thirty-six percent. These contractions allow people’s skin to look tighter and more youthful.
Dual Improvements
Many aesthetic treatments can only improve one aspect of your appearance. For instance, many body contouring treatments will reduce your fat without improving the appearance of your skin. BodyTite is different. This technology will remove unwanted fat and tighten your skin at the same time. You can, therefore, achieve multiple improvements in a single treatment session.
Innovative Technology
This sophisticated body contouring method allows us to provide you with an individualized, effective treatment. We use this technology to administer targeted radio-frequency energy to your body in a precise, controlled manner. Further, the heat delivered during your treatment may help your body to renew and refresh itself after your session. These features may shorten your recovery time and allow us to provide you with more optimal results.
What Is the Difference Between This Treatment and Traditional Liposuction?
Although both treatments reduce fat, they use unique methods and technology. During a traditional liposuction procedure, your medical provider will use a thin tube to remove your fat. Traditional liposuction procedures do not tighten your skin. As a result, patients may experience increased skin laxity after they receive their procedure.
A Different Method
BodyTite uses radio-frequency energy to tighten your skin and reduce your fat at the same time. This is a quick treatment that may be less taxing on your body than a more invasive procedure. If you are dealing with loose skin and excess fat, you may prefer to use this technology instead of receiving liposuction. People who want a treatment with minimal downtime may also prefer this technology.
What Will My Treatment Be Like?
This is a straightforward treatment that is gentle and easy on your body. Many people are thrilled by how quickly they recover after receiving this treatment.
The First Step
You’ll begin by having an initial consultation with us. We will use this time to examine your body, discuss your desired results, and talk about any health conditions that you have. We will also discuss any steps or rules that you need to follow before your treatment session.
Your Treatment
We may use local or general anesthesia to ensure that you are comfortable during your treatment. Once the anesthesia has taken effect, we will make a tiny incision in the target area. Next, we will place one probe into this area. We will move the other probe along the surface of your skin. We may also use a thin tube called a cannula to remove your excess fat. Many people are comfortable during this time.
A Quick Process
This is a straightforward process that often takes about thirty to forty-five minutes for each target area. If you are targeting multiple areas of your body, your treatment could take several hours.
Aftercare
This is a minimally invasive body contouring method that doesn’t require extensive downtime. People usually aren’t required to take weeks off their jobs or other activities while they recover from this treatment. In fact, many people can return to work a few days after their appointments.
That said, we may ask you to follow some simple rules to ensure that you receive the best results. For instance, we may ask to avoid strenuous exercise for a few weeks after your treatment. We may also ask you to wear a compression garment while your body renews itself and heals.
How Soon Will I See Results?
This is an efficient treatment that provides fast results. Since everyone’s body is unique, your individual results will vary. Although you may see some benefits immediately, it can take some time for your body to eliminate your destroyed fat cells and produce additional collagen. Many people see the full effects of this treatment within six to twelve weeks. Further, your skin may continue to tighten for up to a year.
