how big are scars? is there possibility of getting the "ripple effect" after procedure. can u get burnt? i am worried because the plastic surgeon i have been recommended is performing it under a local anesthetic. is this normal?
Answer: BodyTite safety Hi, Thank you for your question. With the BodyTite procedure the scars are very small, the same as liposuction scars, in fact. You can always get ripples when fat is removed too aggressively, so that’s to be avoided. If the doctor is experienced and careful, local anesthesia is very effective. The technology offers greater tightening than we have seen in any device in recent memory. Good Luck!

Answer: BodyTite Procedure. Is it Safe? Yes, BodyTite is a safe procedure. It utilizes radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the tissues to allow for skin tightening that is typically not possible with traditional liposuction. The scars to perform the surgery are very small. The handpiece used to deliver the RF energy is small so the scars are kept to a minimum. Getting a "ripple effect" after BodyTite does not have to do with the technology but more the technique of liposuction. So it is possible after BodyTite just as in any liposuction procedure. The risk of getting burned is very small as there are specific safety mechanisms in place to prevent it. Finally, performing the procedure under local anesthesia is an option. It really depends on each patient and the area being treated.

Answer: Bodytite safety Bodytite is an RF heating technology which serves to tighten skin. It is not the first, however, it is among the safest with both internal and external sensors for monitoring the temperature of tissue in real time.The procedure can be performed under local anesthesia (which is a matter of preference) through multiple small punctures measuring a few millimeters.There is the possibility of small burns from end point contact of the probe. More significant burns are less likely due to the temperature sensors. Uneven contour and rippling are operator dependent and can usually be avoided by skillful technique and careful patient selection.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).
