BodyTite seems relatively new and uncommon. I'm considering having this procedure done (maybe even along with FaceTite) because it's billed to be "minimally invasive" with less downtime than lipo. I'm wondering if there is any info or opinion out there about this procedure's safety and effectiveness. Also, is there any info/opionion on the longer-term effects--is it as permanent as lipo, is anything weird likely to happen to the area where the RFAL was deeply applied, any hardening/bumps? Thanks

Answer: BodyTite and FaceTite are safe and effective Hi. Thanks for your question. I have been using BodyTite and FaceTite in my practice, and have found them to be very effective as a tool to help tighten the skin. Although it cannot tighten as much as procedures that actually remove skin, it often is the next best thing. In fact, for many people, it is a BETTER thing because it avoids the need for long scars. It allows many patients the ability to have minimally invasive body contouring that otherwise would not be able to have liposuction alone. When done by a trained plastic surgeon, your risk of long term hardening/bumps is small. Overall, its GREAT technology. Best of luck!
