I have not had this experience with my patients using BodyTite with or without the addition of liposuction.

Thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear that you are not getting the results from BodyTite that you were expecting. It is hard to imagine a situation where the size of the target tissue goes up since BodyTite will destroy some fat cells. Skin tightening usually occurs in two phases. There is an immediate phase where the fibrous support tissue beneath the skin contracts and a more delayed response whereby new collagen is formed. This phase usually peaks by 6 months. I have not seen the response you are describing to this treatment in any of the patients I have treated and cannot explain why you are not seeing the expected results. I would recommend following up with your physician at the 6 month mark to review your results.
