I had the BodyTite procedure done about 2 weeks ago now, is this normal?

It is really not the technique that gives the best results, it is the person performing the procedure.  In my hands, SmartLipo does help tighten the skin and it has been reported that BodyTite does as well.  My suggestion is if you have loose skin to go to someone who knows how to...
