What is BodyTite?
BodyTite is a body contouring treatment that uses radiofrequency thermal energy to melt fat and tighten the skin.
This radiofrequency energy also stimulates production of collagen, the protein building block that provides structure and support throughout the body. By boosting collagen, BodyTite near Cleveland helps improve and restore the youthful appearance of your skin.
Among other areas, BodyTite can sculpt your:
- Abdomen
- Back
- Arms
- Love handles
- Thighs
One key difference between BodyTite and other body contouring treatments is how the melted fat is expelled from the body. With alternative treatments, the liquified fat stays in your body until it gets naturally flushed out of your system over time. Instead, BodyTite uses suction to remove all melted fat.
The FDA approved BodyTite as a body contouring treatment. With this certification and the expertise of our practitioners, you can trust that BodyTite will deliver the benefits it promises.
As another benefit, BodyTite has unmatched longevity in its results. Many patients enjoy a tightened, toned physique for 4 to 5 years, if not more.
BodyTite Candidates
The best candidates for BodyTite near Cleveland are at least 18 years of age, in good health, and are at a stable weight.
We highly recommend BodyTite for patients who have made significant weight loss progress and those who have some areas of fat that have not responded to diet and exercise efforts. This body contouring treatment is highly effective at eliminating stubborn fat and the skin laxity that many experience after weight loss and pregnancy.
Your BodyTite Treatment
At The Well Westlake, we’ve dedicated our careers to helping women reach their aesthetic and wellness goals. Our mission has always been to provide outstanding and comprehensive patient care, regardless of what treatment you choose.
Here’s what you can expect during your treatment for BodyTite near Cleveland.
A Comprehensive Consultation
Before your BodyTite procedure, you will meet with one of our expert providers for an initial consultation.
During this time, your provider will ask about any areas you would like to target with body contouring. Then, we can determine if BodyTite or another contouring treatment can best meet your unique needs.
Your provider will also give an in-depth explanation of the BodyTite treatment process. Be sure to ask questions or voice any concerns you may have about this body contouring procedure.
We may also ask about your medical history and any medications you’re currently taking. This helps prevent unforeseen complications from arising during your treatment for BodyTite near Cleveland.
Once we decide together that BodyTite is the best body contouring treatment for you, your provider will begin creating your customized procedure plan.
The Prep Work
It’s important that you avoid using alcohol or tobacco products in the week before your procedure. These substances can prolong the healing process and potentially complicate your BodyTite results.
In the 5 days leading up to your BodyTite treatment, our providers may recommend avoiding the following medications depending on your unique case:
- Blood thinners
- Aspirin
- Anti-inflammatory drugs
- Herbal supplements
Taking these medications and supplements before your procedure can increase your risk of excessive bleeding and bruising.
We also recommend staying hydrated before and after your BodyTite procedure. Drinking plenty of water will help speed up the healing process and increase the efficacy of your treatment.
The Body Contouring Treatment
Your provider will begin your BodyTite procedure by cleansing your skin and marking the places for your incisions. They will apply local anesthetic to minimize pain and discomfort throughout the treatment.
Once your treatment area numbs, your provider will make the incisions and insert the BodyTite electrodes into them. The radiofrequency thermal heat will melt fat cells while tightening the skin in the treatment area and leaving the surrounding tissues untouched.
Finally, your provider will use suction to remove the liquefied fat. They will then finish off with a Morpheus Body treatment, which includes microneedling and radiofrequency.
This entire process can take 2 to 3 hours to complete depending on the size of your treatment area.
A Full Recovery
After your BodyTite procedure, your provider will instruct you to rest for the next 48 hours. We also recommend taking it easy and waiting to return to work for the following 3 to 5 days.
Your provider will also give you a detailed recovery guide immediately after your BodyTite treatment. Be sure to follow this guide and attend any follow-up appointments that your provider schedules.
We will also give you a compression garment to wear in the days and weeks after your procedure. Wearing this garment will help diminish swelling and discomfort caused by the treatment.
Your recovery from BodyTite looks very similar to your preparation. We recommend continuing to avoid tobacco products and alcohol for an additional 2 days, and you should drink lots of water to speed up the healing process.
Frequently Asked Questions About BodyTite
At The Well Westlake, we understand that body contouring procedures can sometimes feel confusing or overwhelming. Our team is here to serve as a guiding hand through every step of the process, helping you feel confident throughout your body sculpting journey!
Here are some more details to inform your decisions about BodyTite near Cleveland:
How many BodyTite treatments will I need?
The best part about BodyTite is that you will only need 1 treatment session to create results that last for years!
Other body contouring treatments can only create subtle results after a series of sessions. Unlike the alternatives, just 1 BodyTite treatment will help you create visible results that you can start to see in 2 to 4 weeks.
Is BodyTite a weight loss solution?
BodyTite should not be used as a replacement for a healthy diet, consistent workout routine, or other lifestyle habits.
BodyTite is a body contouring treatment that complements weight loss plans. This treatment is best for patients who have already achieved significant weight loss, but still have small amounts of stubborn fat that didn’t respond to previous efforts.
What treatments can be paired with BodyTite?
At The Well Westlake, we frequently pair BodyTite near Cleveland with other contouring or wellness treatments.
FaceTite
Now, you can also treat excess fat and loose skin around the face with FaceTite! This tool addresses sagging neck skin and helps in creating definition on the jawline, as well as:
- Nasolabial folds
- Laugh and marionette lines
- Sagging neck skin
- Jawline definition
FaceTite and BodyTite both use radiofrequency thermal energy to melt fat and boost collagen production. They both also use incisions to suck out the liquified fat. The main difference between the 2 treatments is that FaceTite uses smaller electrodes specifically sized to treat the face.
TruFlex
After you’ve eliminated that unwanted, stubborn fat, we recommend moving on to muscle toning treatments like TruFlex.
TruFlex is a body sculpting treatment that uses multi-directional muscle stimulation to target specific muscle groups. It also uses bioelectricity to stimulate stronger muscle contractions than you could achieve during any workout on your own.
This muscle toning treatment uses electrode attachments that are placed throughout your desired treatment area. After 15 minutes of muscle contractions, you’ll be able to immediately return to your busy schedule.
We recommend TruFlex for the following areas:
- Abdomen
- Thighs
- Buttocks
- Quads
- Calves
- Biceps
- Triceps
TruFlex can also help patients maintain muscle tone after orthopedic surgery or if you have sustained a joint injury.
Weight and Nutrition Management
If you need an extra push in eliminating stubborn body fat, we recommend our weight and nutrition management program at The Well Westlake.
During this 12-week program, you’ll have weekly meetings with your physician, nutritionist, and behavioral therapist to go over your progress. Your provider may also prescribe weight loss injections or supplements to help you reach your weight loss goals faster.
Throughout this program, we want to help our patients achieve long-term, sustainable weight loss results through healthy lifestyle habits.
