BodyTite: Faster, Cheaper, Less Downtime Than Traditional Lipo
For decades people have turned to surgical liposuction – sometimes called tumescent liposuction – to remove unwanted, stubborn fat. While these older methods of “lipo” were often painful, with a long recovery period, patients were willing to put up with the discomfort to get rid of their fat.
However, a new, radiofrequency-assisted alternative to traditional liposuction is now available that achieves the fat loss of traditional liposuction without the downtime, side effects, pain, or expense of older liposuction surgery!
Advanced BodyTite Lipo incorporates RF heat energy to gently melt the fat before removal. In this article fat loss expert Dr. Hetal Gor explains why BodyTite Lipo is safer, faster and better than traditional liposuction.

BodyTite Lipo: 40% Tighter Skin than Liposuction
As a person ages, their skin loses the ability to “snap back” when stretched. So, while traditional liposuction removed fat, it often left the patient with loose, saggy skin in the treated area.
BodyTite Lipo permanently removes fat and cellulite through the use of radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL). The RF energy contracts the skin’s collagen and elastin fibers for immediate skin tightening. The radiofrequency energy also stimulates the body’s renewed production of the skin’s collagen and elastin to further tighten and tone the skin in the treated area.
As a result, BodyTite lipo patients will experience much tighter skin in treatment areas than previous liposuction methods. In fact, the result is skin that is 40% tighter than the results of traditional liposuction!
By choosing BodyTite Liposuction, our Jersey City, NJ patients do not run the risk of skin sagging or drooping skin after lipo – even older patients who have lost skin elasticity with age.
BodyTite Lipo: Less Painful than Traditional Liposuction
While the end goal of the BodyTite Lipo procedure is the same as traditional liposuction – to remove unwanted fat- the process by which it does so is infinitely less invasive. During old liposuction methods, the doctor had to physically scrape, push, and pull the fat loose from the body using brute force. Because the process was rather brutal, many patients needed to be “put under” with general anesthesia.
But during BodyTite Lipo, temperature-controlled radiofrequency heat energy is delivered underneath the skin, to heat the soft-tissue matrix, melting the fat cells in the process. This “liquifies” the fat, separating it from the body and making it much easier to draw out through the thin tube.
Because it is easier to remove the fat, the procedure is not only less painful, but smaller incisions are used in BodyTite lipo. And patients only require local anesthesia, which is safer as well as much cheaper than general anesthesia.
BodyTite Lipo: Faster Recovery than Traditional Liposuction
In addition to melting or “liquifying” the fat, the radiofrequency heat also coagulates the vascular, adipose, and fibrous tissue. And, this means less swelling and bruising than traditional liposuction!
Traditional liposuction patients are often subject to extensive deep tissue bruising and other surgical trauma that can take months to heal. And patients can require up to two weeks of downtime.
But BodyTite Lipo patients experience significantly less bruising and swelling than traditional liposuction patients. In fact, in most cases, BodyTite Lipo patients are able to enjoy a full recovery and resume their normal activities after just a couple of days!
BodyTite Lipo: Visible Results Sooner
Swelling from old-fashioned liposuction has been known to take several months to subside – concealing results which can’t be seen because of the swelling. Due to extensive swelling, traditional liposuction patients are often left frustrated waiting as long as 9 months to see results – with final results often not visible for a year.
However, with BodyTite lipo, any swelling typically resolves in weeks rather than months – so BodyTite fat loss results are visible much sooner. BodyTite Lipo patients are typically able to see visible results immediately after their procedure, with final results visible in some cases as soon as 6 weeks afterwards.
Other Advantages of BodyTite Lipo
Once the heat has contracted the skin and coagulated the tissue, Doctor Gor is then able to “sculpt” the body into the desired shape – allowing for greater precision than the rougher and more aggressive traditional liposuction technique.
Additionally, because the fat has been liquified, a smaller cannula (tube) can be used to remove the fat during BodyTite. So, the scars from BodyTite Lipo are much smaller, and fade to barely visible over time.

Traditional liposuction often requires the patient to undergo general anesthesia and comes with weeks of recovery and months of swelling. Additionally, traditional liposuction does not provide the skin tightening effects of BodyTite Lipo.
Our Englewood and Jersey City patients universally prefer BodyTite Lipo over liposuction because it is non-surgical, virtually painless, and there is much less downtime. Additionally, BodyTite is also much less expensive than full surgical liposuction!
