Struggling with stubborn fat or loose skin that doesn’t seem to improve despite diet and exercise? Whether it’s your stomach, thighs, upper arms, back or flanks, some areas of the body can be particularly difficult to tone and contour.
At Harley Street Clinic Surrey in Reigate, we offer BodyTite radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL), an advanced, minimally invasive body contouring procedure designed to reduce unwanted fat while tightening the surrounding skin.
Unlike traditional liposuction, which primarily focuses on fat removal, BodyTite combines targeted fat reduction with radiofrequency skin tightening, helping patients achieve smoother, firmer and more defined body contours.
What Is BodyTite and How Does It Work?
BodyTite is an innovative body contouring procedure that uses controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin to encourage tissue contraction and collagen remodelling.
The treatment can be combined with liposuction to remove localised fat deposits while addressing mild to moderate skin laxity.
Performed through small incisions, typically under local anaesthetic for suitable patients, BodyTite offers an alternative to more extensive skin-removal surgery where significant excess skin is not present.
Which Areas Can BodyTite Treat?
BodyTite can be used across several areas of the body where stubborn fat and reduced skin firmness are concerns.
BodyTite for Arms – Reduce Bingo Wings & Loose Skin
Loose upper-arm skin, commonly referred to as bingo wings, can develop following weight loss or as skin elasticity decreases with age.
BodyTite arm contouring combines targeted fat reduction with radiofrequency skin tightening to help create smoother, firmer and more defined upper arms.
For suitable patients, it may offer an alternative to a traditional arm lift without the longer incision associated with extensive skin removal.
BodyTite for Thighs – Smoother, More Defined Legs
Stubborn fat around the inner and outer thighs can affect leg proportions, while skin laxity may become more noticeable following weight loss or ageing.
BodyTite thigh contouring helps reduce selected fat deposits while encouraging skin contraction, supporting smoother-looking and more defined thighs.
Treatment may be particularly beneficial for patients concerned about inner thigh fullness, outer thigh fat and mild to moderate loose skin.
BodyTite for Abdomen – Target Stubborn Stomach Fat
The stomach is one of the most common areas for body contouring, particularly following pregnancy, weight fluctuations or ageing.
BodyTite abdominal contouring combines fat removal with skin-tightening technology to help improve the appearance of stubborn abdominal fat and mild skin laxity.
For appropriate patients, BodyTite may provide an alternative to more extensive abdominal surgery, although significant excess skin or muscle separation may require a different surgical approach.
BodyTite for Flanks & Waist – Refine Your Silhouette
Stubborn fat around the waist and flanks, often referred to as love handles, can be difficult to address through exercise alone.
BodyTite targets localised fat deposits while supporting skin contraction, helping to refine the waistline and create smoother contours around the abdomen, hips and back.
BodyTite for Back Fat & Bra Bulges
Unwanted fat around the upper and lower back can cause visible rolls or fullness beneath clothing.
BodyTite back contouring may help reduce localised fat deposits, including bra-line bulges and back rolls, while improving the appearance of the overlying skin.
BodyTite for Knees, Lower Legs & Ankles
Fullness around the inner knees, calves and ankles can affect the overall shape and proportions of the legs.
In selected cases, targeted fat reduction may help improve lower-leg definition. However, ankle and lower-leg contouring require careful specialist assessment, and BodyTite is not suitable for every patient or anatomical area.
Our surgical team can discuss which contouring options may be appropriate following an individual consultation.
What Are the Benefits of BodyTite?
For suitable patients, BodyTite offers several potential benefits:
- Fat reduction and skin tightening in one procedure
- Improved body contours across areas of stubborn fat
- Skin contraction and collagen remodelling through radiofrequency technology
- Small surgical incisions compared with more extensive skin-removal procedures
- Local anaesthetic options for appropriate patients
- Long-lasting fat reduction, particularly when maintaining a stable weight
Unlike procedures focused solely on fat removal, BodyTite is designed to address both unwanted fat and reduced skin firmness.
BodyTite vs Traditional Liposuction
Traditional liposuction primarily removes excess fat, whereas BodyTite incorporates radiofrequency energy to encourage skin contraction alongside fat reduction.
This makes BodyTite particularly appealing for patients who are concerned about both stubborn fat and mild to moderate loose skin.
However, BodyTite is not a weight-loss treatment or a substitute for more extensive skin-removal surgery where significant excess tissue is present.
What Happens During Your BodyTite Procedure?
Your treatment journey begins with a personalised consultation at Harley Street Clinic Surrey in Reigate.
Your surgeon will assess your body proportions, fat distribution, skin elasticity and treatment goals before recommending an appropriate procedure.
During BodyTite treatment, a small cannula delivers controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin. Liposuction may then be performed to remove selected fat deposits and refine the treated area.
Following treatment, some swelling, bruising and discomfort are expected. Compression garments may be recommended, and recovery time varies depending on the area and extent of treatment.
When Will I See BodyTite Results?
Initial changes may become noticeable as swelling subsides, with further improvements developing over the following months as tissues heal and collagen remodelling occurs.
Results depend on the treatment area, skin quality, amount of fat removed and individual healing response.
Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help preserve your body contouring results.
