BodyTite...not so much!

Bodytite...not So Much!

I am three months post procedure and still have some pain in the treated areas of my underarms. I also have several knots and lumps remaining. The doctor burned my right underarm in several places which now have left brown scars. I did as much research as I could on Bodytite used on underarms and thought I had selected an accomplished physician to perform the procedure. I have a much different opinion now.
My arms look worse now than before the procedure. I am 65 years old, 5’6” tall, weigh 127 lbs. and in good physical condition. I wanted to achieve a more slender appearance to my underarms AND tighten the skin, which is what the Bodytite procedure claims to do. I think my lack of more positive results and satisfaction is a combination of a poor execution of the procedure by my chosen doctor and unrealistic claims of the procedure itself. Aside from more sagging the scars are really distressing. I am seeking laser treatments now to try and fade them.
Bottom line, I would not recommend this procedure over any other type of liposuction. I regret I did it and definitely would not recommend the doctor who performed it on me.

I am now five months lost op and still have some tenderness and lumps. Not happy with outcome at all. The claims made by the manufacturer are very misleading in my opinion, perhaps it is better performed on the trunk of the body and not underarms, also age plays a big factor in how much skin retraction will be achieved, What I have found that continued massaging of the tissue is critical for better healing. I have some improvement from my three month review but still not worth $4500!

I was looking at doing the Bodytite on my thighs from this same dr. Did she agree with you that the outcome was not as expected? I have heard nothing but great things about this dr. Just wondering if it was more that it shouldn't be done on the underarm area vs not performed correctly? I hope you continue to see improvement as the months go on. I would think it takes a good 6 months for everything to settle down. I was told by another provider that it works best in conjunction with lipo vs just bodytite alone.

I saw this doctor two weeks ago for bodytite on my upper and lower abdomen. I am very happy with her doing my treatment and my results so far!
