Bodytite or Cooltech? (Cryolipolysis)

coolsculpting and trusculpt can be used together for great results if you hav small areas. if you ahve larger areas VASER HD lipo with renuvion is the best gold-standard liposuction body contouring procedures.
If you have small problem areas you can use non invasive methods like coolsculpting with vanquish or TrusculptID to get small areas of fat reduced.  Skin also tightens if you combine this with exilis ultra, venus legacy, Inmode Forma/Contoura radiofrequency treatments.  You boost the results from coolsculpting if you add in Kybella injections to melt fat as well.  We also combine coolsculpting with shock therapy like Z wave, EVIVE, and cellutone to get even faster results, more improvement, and less risk of combinations like nodules, swelling, neuropathy or paradoxical hyperplasia.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, thank you for your question. BodyTite does not remove any fat. It is capable of producing a 45% contraction in tissues. It can be combined with liposuction to improve contours dramatically. BodyTite only works well for people who are near their target weight and who have skin elastic enough to bounce back from the procedure. Results can be seen immediately after one treatment and are more evident over three to six months post-treatment. Wait until six months to fully evaluate the aesthetic results. If you maintain your target weight within 5 to 10 pounds of your goal weight, the results should last for years. Consult via email or Skype with a board certified PS who can help you reach your goals.

Hello, and thank you for your question. BodyTite is a great solution for individuals who arelooking to reduce fat without the saggy, wrinkly skin. It also helps improve skin laxity after weightloss or due to aging. In addition, BodyTite is a minimally invasive procedure that shapes,contracts and lifts without the scalpel of large scarring that comes with traditional procedures.CoolTech is specifically used to reduce fat by freezing fat cells, in a non-invasive manner aswell. However, it does not have the benefit of rejuvenating the targeted and surrounding skin inthe process like BodyTite.

Thank you for your questions. Body Tite is a technology that uses radiofrequency to shrink wrap the tissues in conjunction with liposuction. You are right that it is to improve or tighten the tissues. CoolSculpt is specifically used to reduce fat. Your specific anatomy will determine what the best option is for you. I recommend scheduling a consultation with a board certified Plastic Surgeon who can assess your specific anatomy. In our office we offer 3D imaging to give our patients an accurate idea of what their final results will look like. Good luck!

Observing your age and weight I can imagine you might be best to avoid any treatment, for the time being in any case.
Bodytite alone I would usually not consider for a patient in your profile.
Cryolipo: I do not offer this treatment but I have over the past 18 months treated at least seven patients for complications after cryolipolysis (asymmetry, dents, lumps and bumps). After cryolipo the sub-dermal layer becomes very dense, fibrotic and resistant to vaser and cannulas.  A straight forward process can then become very difficult in  reaching  the desired end point.
I have treated patients in your profile who wanted a bit more definition of the abdomen with vaser and micro cannulas but you also have to take note that we work with what the patients have on offer regarding fat content as well as muscle tone and fitness. It becomes a cost benefit issue especially if the post op change is subtle.

It's difficult to give you an absolute answer without photographs or an in-person consultation. In the majority of patients, from my experience, neither procedure is what you need but a power assisted or traditional liposuction which should produce the best results, as long as the procedure is performed by an experienced plastic surgeon who's known for their good results. I hope this helps in good luck from New York City plastic surgery

Hello, and thank you for your question!

BodyTite will tighten and tone fattening, wrinkly and loose skin that doesn’t go away with diet and exercise alone. Using fat coagulation and volumetric heating technology, BodyTite works in multiple ways to treat the affected areas. In addition to improving skin laxity, it reduces the amount of fat in the treated area. It is a minimally invasive device that many patients are very satisfied with. Recovery is usually 1-2 days but can be up to 10 days depending on the person. Patience is a must though, as it takes about 6 months to one year to see results. Prices range from $3,000 to $5,000 depending on how many areas you want done.

Please see my attached link which has more information on BodyTite, including a video at the bottom of the page. Please be sure to see a board-certified plastic surgeon you feel comfortable with. Best of luck!
