What should I expect with pain, swelling & bruising?

Patients may experience minor bruising and numbness immediately after BodyTite but much less than after traditional liposuction. Numbness will wear off throughout the course of the day and patients may use prescribed anti-inflammatoy or pain medication. Patients can expect the swelling to decrease while any minor bruising experienced during treatment will subside within a few days. Patients can return to their regular routine immediately, however, should only resume high impact exercise once the pain and swelling have subsided.

How is this better than traditional liposuction?

As you age or gain weight, your skin becomes less elastic. Liposuction can compound the problem by leaving the treatment area looking lumpy or irregular. Patients with skin laxity and/or stretch marks along with fat deposits can have better results using BodyTite to firm their body and decrease the risk of post-liposuction skin laxity. Compared to traditional liposuction, BodyTite offers a safer, gentler and less traumatic alternative with more uniform results and minimal postoperative discomfort and bruising.

What kind of post-procedure care is required?

BodyTite is a minimally-invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia or light sedation. Post procedure, you can go home and resume your routine shortly after. You will be required to wear a compression garment and can resume high impact exercise upon the advice of your doctor.
