Elite body vs BodyTite, which one is best of skin tightening?

Question

I'm really trying to decide on the new bodytite procedure or the elite body sculpture procedure . I don't know how they are different and which one is best for some day removal and skin tightening? All these new procedures are overwhelming.

BodyTite is capable of producing a 45% contraction in tissues, which is greater than other technologies.

Thank you for your question. BodyTite would be a great option for you. It is a minimally-invasive body contouring procedure that utilizes radio-frequency assisted lipolysis. It combines two successful technologies into a double-duty procedure that reduces fat while simultaneously tightening the skin. For more information, please make sure you get a in person consultation from a board-certified dermatologist.

Bodytite has the ability to cause more consistent tightening of the tissues based on the studies done and the results.

Laser liposuction is likely the closest to being able to achieve the tightening Body Tite does.  Body Tite, however, reaches the necessary temperature to cause skin retraction rapidly. It also measures those temperatures so the surgeon can reach them safely.  Although the laser systems are capable of causing skin retraction, it usually requires over-treatment. Most refer to Tara Ried's irregular contour as the result of laser liposuction attempting to cause skin retraction. Body Tite has arranged their hand piece to monitor temperature and actually stop when the desired temperature is reached. For the moment Body Tite holds the upper hand.

Thank you for your question. The simple answer is BodyTite will result in a much more dramatic tightening of the skin than the AirSculpt Elite Body Sculpture procedure. 
The thermal RF energy of the BodyTite can achieve a tightening effect of 30-35% when stretch marks are not present. By comparison, liposuction can achieve a skin tightening effect of 7-10%. AirSculpt is a form of liposuction so its skin tightening effects would be limited to 7-10%. BodyTite is often combined with various forms of liposuction such as Vaser, Tickle Lipo or AirSculpt. At our center in St Louis, MO, I combine Tickle Lipo with the BodyTite whenever I am sculpting the body.
I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore

Hi ThereThank you for your question. I cannot speak for Elite Bodysculpting except to say that BodyTite is to my knowledge the only modality that can significantly tighten loose tissues due to applying heat during the treatment.Laser lipo does to a very limited extent and 7-8 years ago when this was all I had available this worked to a limited extent.What I found though was that when I started using BodyTite in 2010 the tightening effect was much more profound AND quicker ie 12 - 24 hours not 6 months!!!It depends then on how loose the skin is. If your doctor is talking tummy tuck, you should talk to someone experienced with BodyTite but for at least a couple of years there will be very few if anybody in the USA who can deliver on something as difficult as this because BodyTite has only just started in USA. This is the real issue - you may have to travel to the UK......Kind RegardsDr Dinesh MainiZenith Cosmetic Clinics
