Loose skin and stubborn fat can make it difficult to achieve the toned, sculpted look you want. If you’re looking for a minimally invasive way to tighten skin and contour your body, BodyTite may be the perfect solution.
At Advanced Plastic Surgery Center, we offer BodyTite skin tightening to help patients achieve firmer, more youthful-looking skin without the need for invasive surgery or long recovery times.
What is BodyTite Skin Tightening?
BodyTite is an FDA-approved, minimally invasive treatment that uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to:
- Tighten loose skin by stimulating collagen production
- Melt unwanted fat for better body contours
- Improve skin elasticity in areas affected by aging or weight loss
This treatment is ideal for multiple areas, including:
- Abdomen
- Arms
- Thighs
- Knees
- Flanks
- Bra roll
By combining fat reduction with skin tightening, BodyTite delivers more dramatic results than traditional non-invasive treatments.
Am I a Candidate for BodyTite Skin Tightening?
You may be a good candidate for BodyTite skin tightening if you:
- Have loose or sagging skin on the body
- Struggle with stubborn fat pockets that don’t respond to diet and exercise
- Are not ready for surgery but want noticeable improvement

During your consultation, Dr. Economides will determine if BodyTite is the right treatment for your goals.

What Can I Expect During Treatments?
BodyTite skin tightening treatments are performed in-office under local anesthesia. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the treatment area.
What to Expect:
- A small incision is made to insert the BodyTite probe under the skin.
- The device emits radiofrequency energy to break down fat and stimulate collagen.
- The skin contracts while fat is gently removed through a thin tube (cannula).
- The incision is closed, and patients can return home the same day.
Since it’s minimally invasive, BodyTite offers faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.
What Can I Expect from the Results of BodyTite Skin Tightening?
- Immediate improvement with continued results over 3–6 months
- Up to 40% skin contraction in treated areas
- Smoother, tighter skin without visible scarring
- Long-lasting results, especially when combined with a healthy lifestyle
Most patients see their final results within 6 months, as collagen production increases and the skin naturally tightens.
