Tighten Skin Without Surgery
What is FaceTite & BodyTite?
FaceTite and BodyTite are revolutionary technologies based on radiofrequency energy. This treatment inserts a probe under the skin to deliver radiofrequency energy with a second external electrode on the skin surface. The bipolar design allows for differential heating of the tissues so that a higher internal temperature can be reached to melt fat without causing damage to the skin surface. An ideal temperature is selected to induce tightening of the fibroseptal network under the skin and the formation and reorganization of new collagen. This leads to continued skin tightening for several weeks to months after the procedure.

“The staff here is amazing! I called today with so many questions and had the pleasure of speaking with Eva. She was so refreshing to interact with! She had so much patience, throughly answered my questions and even told me about some promotions to help with the cost. Dr Rostami is so sweet and really is an artist with the work that she does. If you’re hesitant about trying fillers, she’s the woman you need to talk to! Thank you all, I can’t wait to return!”
Am I A Good Candidate for FaceTite & BodyTite?
Patients not ready for surgery or those without severe enough laxity to need a surgical procedure are ideal candidates for FaceTite and BodyTite. These procedures produce dramatic and noticeable results without the scarring of a full facelift or body lift.
Benefits of FaceTite & BodyTite
Different treatments exist for each specific problem area. They include:
- Accutite: Upper and lower eyelids, eyebrows, nasolabial folds
- Facetite and Necktite: Neck contouring, definition of the jawline, and treatment of jowls
- Bodytite: Knees and thighs, bra line, back of the arms, and abdomen
Liposuction may be added to your treatment to decrease stubborn fat in your problem areas. This is superior to traditional liposuction because liposuction alone does not treat the skin, so many patients end up with fat reduction but are left with sagging skin. Bodytite and Facetite tighten skin with radiofrequency, while liposuction provides additional contouring by removing fat.
Morpheus 8 is performed during your procedure to provide even more dramatic results. Morpheus 8 is a fractional treatment that combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling. Small needles penetrate the skin surface and emit radiofrequency at a customized depth and energy level to achieve your desired results. The addition of radiofrequency energy makes this treatment superior to microneedling alone. Morpheus 8 is typically done in a series of 3 treatments. Results include improvement in overall skin texture and tightening in the more superficial skin surface layers. Because this treatment stimulates your body’s collagen formation and reorganization, results are best seen in the 6-12 weeks after you complete your treatment series.

The FaceTite & BodyTite Procedure
Most people feel most comfortable receiving some sedation for the procedure, but it can be done under local anesthesia (numbing injections) with pain medicine or Pro-Nox (laughing gas) for comfort. Our team will discuss the best plan for you to be comfortable. Two to three needle-size punctures are created to allow for the probe insertion. These are usually the size of the tip of a marker. Typically, no sutures are needed, and there are no visible incisions.
FaceTite & BodyTite Results
Everyone heals differently. Most will be ready to return to work within 3-7 days, while some may take a little longer to recover. It’s best to plan for one week of recovery. You can expect improved definition, fat reduction, and skin tightening. Your results will be evident within two weeks and continue to improve for 2-6 months after the treatment.
