Using InMode Bodytite for Skin Tightening with Liposuction

Table of Contents

BodyTite by InMode is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to address localised fat and skin laxity using advanced radiofrequency technology. 

At Australia Cosmetic Clinics in Sydney, Specialist Plastic Surgeon Dr Mark Kohout offers this innovative treatment for patients seeking body contouring with enhanced skin contraction.

What is InMode BodyTite?

BodyTite is a body contouring device that utilises radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology. It works by delivering controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin to liquefy fat while simultaneously tightening the skin. The combination of fat reduction and skin contraction makes it a suitable option for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity.

The treatment is often recommended for patients seeking a minimally invasive option for body contouring, where traditional liposuction may not provide sufficient skin contraction​.

Different Types of BodyTite Procedures

BodyTite technology is versatile, allowing for use on various areas of the body:

  • BodyTite: Designed for larger areas such as the abdomen, thighs, flanks, and arms.
  • FaceTite: Targets smaller facial areas, such as the jawline and neck.
  • AccuTite: Suitable for delicate areas requiring precise contouring, such as the eyelids and under the chin.

Each treatment option can be tailored to the patient’s specific needs and goals following a detailed consultation​.

What the Procedure Involves

BodyTite procedures are performed under local anaesthesia to ensure patient comfort. The process involves:

  • Consultation: A comprehensive assessment of the patient’s needs and medical history.
  • Anaesthesia: Application of local anaesthesia for comfort.
  • RF Energy Application: A small incision is made, and a probe delivers RF energy to liquefy fat while a simultaneous suction device removes the liquefied fat.
  • Skin Tightening: The RF energy stimulates collagen production, improving skin tightness over time.
  • Post-Procedure Care: Compression garments are often recommended to aid healing and optimise results​.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for RFAL / Bodytite? 

BodyTite may be suitable for patients who:

  • Are in good general health.
  • Have mild to moderate skin laxity.
  • Seek fat reduction with skin tightening in specific body areas.
  • Have realistic expectations regarding the results and recovery process.

A consultation with Dr Mark Kohout is essential to assess individual suitability and discuss potential risks and benefits​.

Who is a good candidate for BodyTite?

BodyTite can be considered for both cosmetic and functional indications, including:

  • Cosmetic: Fat reduction combined with skin tightening.
  • Functional: Improving skin laxity after weight loss.

It is important to clarify that results can vary based on individual factors such as skin quality, age, and lifestyle​.
