BodyTite

What is BodyTite?

Are you noticing areas of mild to moderate skin laxity, cellulite, or stubborn fat pockets? If this sounds like you, you may be able to benefit from the breakthrough procedure, BodyTite!

BodyTite is a minimally invasive solution to tighten skin, assist in removing stubborn fat, reduce the appearance of cellulite, and firm and re-contour your body. This procedure is safe for almost any area that you wish to treat, including the arms, chest, stomach, thighs, back, and more. Even better yet, it can enhance liposuction results without additional incisions and scarring!

How Does BodyTite Work?

BodyTite works by using radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin, remove stubborn, unwanted fat, and boost collagen production. A small cannula is placed under the skin, and the radiofrequency energy emits from that cannula to the treatment area. The heat from this energy is what melts the fat cells, tightens the collagen and elastin fibers, and tightens and smoothes the skin overall. The body continues to stimulate collagen and elastin production and improve the look of the treatment area.

Is BodyTite Right For Me?

Candidates for BodyTite are those who want to reduce mild, stubborn fat that is resistant to diet and exercise and tighten small amounts of loose skin, without undergoing a more invasive procedure. To be a successful candidate, patients should be within their ideal, healthy weight range first. They should be committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise in order to maintain their body contouring results.

Patient Testimonials

I am beyond thrilled with my choice of a plastic surgeon. Dr. Colony is not only incredibly smart and he's got the bedside manner going for him which is quite hard to find in surgeons. I have not only recommended Colony to many friends, but I've actually realized a couple of friends had gone to him before without me realizing.

Dr. Colony was so kind to me when I asked him all my questions about wanting surgery. He did not rush and made me feel like I mattered. He is very knowledgeable. I can hardly wait to get my surgery done by him!

Dr. Colony did AMAZING work!!!! I could NOT be happier with my results. I am 6wks post op breast augmentation and I am completely 150% satisfied. I spent 2hrs asking questions in my consultation. He answered every single one of them. The procedure went perfectly and great CRNA and staffing. Great pre/post-op packet given before surgery. Am sooooo pleased with my results!! Couldn't be happier!! Would recommend to everyone, tell everyone about Dr. Colony!!

Before Your BodyTite Procedure

The first step you’ll want to take in your BodyTite process is to schedule a free consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Colony. During your appointment, he’ll go over your medical history, discuss your goals, answer any questions you have, and perform an exam. From there, he’ll determine if this is the right treatment for you and your desired outcome.

Before your BodyTite procedure, you will need to stop smoking, be at a stable weight, limit your alcohol consumption, and follow any other pre-treatment instructions we give you.

During Your BodyTite Procedure in East Lansing

The BodyTite procedure delivers energy directly to the deep layers of the skin, causing the collagen fibers to shrink, tighten, and remodel. This controlled radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis energy is evenly distributed throughout the layers of the skin to smooth, tighten, and create an improved contour. It can be used in conjunction with liposuction to ensure that the skin does not sag but rather gives better skin contraction for a tighter, firmer look.

After Your BodyTite Procedure in East Lansing

The length of recovery will depend on the size of the area treated and whether or not liposuction techniques were utilized. During the recovery process, patients might notice some mild swelling and redness in the treated area, but this should diminish over the next few days to weeks.

What to Expect for Your BodyTite Results

After a few months, patients will enjoy reduced fat without sagging or wrinkling and tighter, firmer skin. Once the fat cells have been eliminated, they cannot return. However, patients can still gain weight in untreated areas, so maintaining a healthy weight is the best way to ensure an improved body contour that lasts.
