Better Liposuction With BodyTite

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a tech­nique for sucking out unwanted fatty tissue to remove unat­tractive bulges. At Reforme Medical, we often enhance this procedure with the BodyTite treat­ment to get better results.

Liposuction is one of the most common and popular cosmetic surgery proced­ures. While unwanted fat is primarily a cosmetic problem, patients often feel it impacts their social and personal lives. It may restrict their clothing choices, or cause them to avoid places like beaches or swim­ming pools, becoming with­drawn and reluctant to expose their skin even among close friends.

If despite a stable body weight and a healthy life­style consisting of diet and exer­cise, you have been unable to shift the bulges from your double chin, chest, arms, tummy, flanks, love handles, hips, back, buttocks, or thighs then you are an ideal patient for liposuction.

What Is BodyTite?

BodyTite is an FDA-approved tech­no­logy that uses Radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten the fibro­septal network (FSN) a layer of fibrous tissue under the skin that contrib­utes to tight­ening of the skin envelope.

While liposuc­tion will contribute to skin tight­ening, if your skin does not have a great tone and we are worried that the skin envelope will not shrink back adequately after the liposuc­tion alone, we will advise you to consider BodyTite along with the liposuc­tion to promote further 30 – 40% more contrac­tion of the treated area. The BodyTite treat­ment is done at the same time as the Liposuction.

When used together, Liposuction and BodyTite can some­times replace the need for excisional surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Non-Surgical Fat Reduction devices work?

The enormous numbers of tech­no­logy and devices targeted at this market clearly show that there is no tech­no­logy as yet which is on par with Liposuction. All the devices suffer from the same problem. While most of them can damage the fat cells to an extent, there is no reli­able mech­anism in our bodies to take the fat away after it has been dissolved. In liposuc­tion all the unwanted fatty excess is removed from your body, giving reli­able, long-standing results (if you main­tain your healthy lifestyle).

What are the types of Liposuction?

  • BodyTite Liposuction: As described above the BodyTite tech­no­logy uses RF energy to melt fat and tighten the collagen network under the skin, improving the skin contrac­tion that can be achieved in the treated areas
  • MicroLipo or Micro-canalicular Liposuction: This is a fant­astic Suction Assisted Liposuction tech­nique to treat Bingo Wings or Arm Fat, Double Chin, Inner Thighs and Inner Knees, as it is a very precise procedure, done through 3–4 mm punc­tures in hidden places on your body.
  • VASER Lipo: This Assisted Liposuction tech­nique uses Ultrasound Energy to break stub­born pockets of fat in areas such as the male chest or male backs, making it easy for the Liposuction to remove fat from these areas. It is also used in 3 D or 4 D Hi-Def Procedures.
  • SmartLipo: A Laser Assisted Liposuction tech­nique that uses lasers to heat under the surface of the skin to enhance skin tight­ening and reduce the bruising and recovery.
  • Other Liposuction Variants: PAL or Power Assisted Liposuction, Water Jet Lipo, BodyTite Liposuction, Tickle Lipo.
  • Combined proced­ures: Liposuction is often combined with proced­ures such as Tummy tuck, or Mommy Makeover, Breast Implants or other cosmetic surgery procedures.

Do I need to wear pressure or compression garment after the procedure?

While we do recom­mend that you wear a pres­sure garment as much as possible, we allow you to take it off during a shower or while you are lying down with the arms elev­ated on a pillow. The dura­tion of wearing the compres­sion garment varies from patient to patient.

Can you get arm BodyTite liposuction?

You will have to come in for a consulta­tion with Dr Prashant or one of his colleagues, for us to determine if you are a suit­able candidate for arm BodyTite liposuc­tion or if you need to have an arm lift instead.

Does liposuction leave scars?

Liposuction scars are tiny 3–4 mm and are placed in hidden areas, so they are not easily notice­able once fully healed.
