The Lowdown on Non-Surgical Fat Reduction Treatments

Apr 12, 2023

Millions of people struggle with concerns about their weight. Many face a constant uphill battle of trying to lose weight through diet and exercise but can’t reach their ultimate goals. For some, their weight goes up and down as they change their fitness regimen, while for others, nothing seems to get rid of unwanted fat bulges.

Fortunately, several new technologies have made fat reduction possible without surgery. These options are known as non-surgical fat reduction treatments and provide results without significant recovery periods.

The MedSpa at Burlington Plastic Surgery offers four non-surgical fat reduction options that effectively reduce fat. They include EvolveX, FaceTite, Accutite, and BodyTite.

What Is EvolveX?

EvolveX combines radiofrequency technology to tighten the skin, eliminate unwanted fat, and encourage muscle building through electrical muscle stimulation. Patients who choose EvolveX enjoy three different modes that tackle each concern in an organized fashion.

An EvolveX treatment begins when we place the device on the area of the body identified for treatment. It delivers radiofrequency energy directly into the body’s tissues, stimulating the muscles to contract repeatedly and burning body fat. The heat from the device also triggers collagen and elastin production, encouraging lax skin to tighten.

Patients who choose EvolveX typically have six treatment sessions spaced across weekly intervals. Results begin to become visible after the first week, although full results take up to three months to appear. The body needs time to accommodate collagen production and flush out excess fat naturally through the lymphatic system.

There is no downtime with EvolveX. Sessions last less than an hour, and patients are free to return to their daily activities following treatment. Many patients spend their time reading a book or scrolling through their phones during their appointments.

EvolveX is one of the most effective non-surgical fat reduction procedures available on the market today. Patients often see significant results from the treatments, including increased muscle tone, tighter skin, and better body contouring.

Schedule a consultation with us to determine whether you’re a good candidate for EvolveX. At your consultation, we’ll review your medical history to make sure there aren’t any medical concerns that would prevent you from having this non-surgical fat reduction treatment.

Keep in mind that EvolveX is not a substitute for weight loss. People who obtain the most visible results from the treatment are usually within 10 to 20 pounds of their recommended body weight.

What Is FaceTite?

FaceTite is a non-surgical fat reduction treatment, especially for the face. FaceTite gently heats the underlying skin layers using radiofrequency energy, encouraging collagen and elastin production. As the skin heals, the fat cells melt and eliminate naturally through the lymphatic system.

FaceTite is appropriate for individuals seeking to reduce fat that develops underneath the chin and jaw. If a significant amount of fat is present in the area, FaceTite can be combined with liposuction to achieve a stronger jawline and eliminate the visibility of jowls.

Results from FaceTite are long-lasting. Oftentimes, only one treatment is necessary for patients to see significant changes to their jawline. In addition to treating excess fat, FaceTite is beneficial for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles and stimulating collagen production in the cheeks, eyelids, and forehead.

FaceTite requires a few tiny incisions in the treatment areas. However, recovery time is generally limited to a few days before patients can comfortably return to normal activities.

What Is AccuTite?

AccuTite is similar to FaceTite but is effective for the body and the face. AccuTite delivers radiofrequency energy to encourage fat metabolization in small areas of the face and body. It’s most effective for treating the jawline, jowls, brows, and eyelids.

Patients seeking to benefit from fat reduction in small areas of the body, such as the bra line, upper arms, hands, and knees, choose AccuTite. The radiofrequency energy delivered by AccuTite results in a sculpting effect that also tightens the skin.

Individuals who choose AccuTite require only a single treatment to see significant benefits. Skin tightening is often visible in the week following treatment, while the full results are apparent within two months.

Like FaceTite, a few days of downtime are necessary for recovery. However, the results from AccuTite are permanent, and patients won’t need additional treatments unless significant changes in body weight occur.

What Is BodyTite?

BodyTite is another radiofrequency-based fat reduction and skin tightening treatment. It’s considered to be one of the best non-surgical fat reduction options for the body. The device generates heat and penetrates deep into skin tissue, encouraging fat cells to melt and dissolve into the bloodstream, where they are naturally eliminated.

BodyTite can be combined with liposuction for more dramatic results. Patients who choose BodyTite as a standalone procedure will see a reduction in circumference to the treated areas, which grows over time. Since BodyTite also has skin tightening benefits, patients don’t need to worry about skin laxity from their fat-reduction treatment.

The results from BodyTite become apparent within one week of treatment, with full results visible after several months. BodyTite requires a few days for recovery, but patients can return to normal activities soon afterward.

Like FaceTite and AccuTite, the results from BodyTite are permanent. However, if the patient experiences weight fluctuations of more than 10 pounds, they may require additional treatment.
