Liposuction with Bodytite is an aesthetic application performed to obtain a flat and tight surface as a result of transmitting radio frequency waves to the skin and removing the fat from it. The purpose of this aesthetic application is to tighten the skin while removing the fat tissues by means of radio frequency waves. In Bodytite application, which is also known as new generation liposuction, collagen production, which is the cornerstone of delaying aging of the skin, is also triggered. Bodytite is an FDA-approved device, so this application is also an FDA-approved application.
How is Bodytite made?
Bodytite involves both melting the fat and stopping minor bleeding by entering through a small incision in the skin. In addition, by sending radio frequency waves to the skin from the outside part of the Bodytite device, the skin is tightened. In this way, a smooth and tight surface is obtained. The application can be done in the clinical setting or in the operating room environment under sterile conditions. It is a safe and comfortable application.
What is Bodytite’s mechanism of action?
When the Bodytite device is considered as a tong, it can be imagined that one end of the tong stays in the tissue and melts the fat tissues, while the other end transmits radio frequency energy from the outside and reflects it to the tissue. It can be understood that it is a very effective mechanism since the radio frequency energy sent from the outside can process the tissue mass between 5 mm and 5 cm.
With this mechanism;
- While the radio frequency energy is sent at an average of 40 degrees, this energy increases up to 70 degrees in the tissue.
- Fats are broken down and liquefied in the tissue. These cannulas provide an advantage in the extraction of adipose tissues.
- Simultaneous tightening of the skin and subcutaneous tissue is achieved. This tightening can increase by up to 20% by six weeks.
- Due to the low risk of bleeding in the treated area, bruising and edema are significantly reduced.
- Since the same amount of tissue is taken from the application areas, a homogeneous appearance is provided on the skin.
How does the Bodytite procedure work?
Bodytite application is used with Radio Frequency Assisted Liposuction Technology (RFAL™) to increase comfort and safety.
Bodytite application is applied after local anesthesia to reduce the loss of sensation in order to increase the comfort of the patient. The thin cannula of the device is inserted into the subcutaneous fat tissue through a small incision made at the beginning of the application.
By transmitting the radio frequency to the adipose tissue through the cannula, the adipose tissue is fragmented, melted and it becomes easier for this tissue to come out. In addition, by triggering the skin’s collagen production, it provides both an anti-aging effect and a tighter appearance. The application is completed by absorbing the disintegrated and melting fat tissues from the body.
Application time varies depending on the size and complexity of the application area. One of the important advantages of Bodytite application is that it does not affect the surrounding tissues and therefore the risk of bleeding and trauma is minimized.
The Bodytite device provides instant feedback on skin temperature and prevents overheating.
