What Is BodyTite?
Nothing is more frustrating than losing a substantial amount of weight only to be left with loose, droopy skin around your midsection. At Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery, we understand this frustration, which is why we're pleased to offer nonsurgical skin tightening with the cutting-edge BodyTite platform from InMode Aesthetics. This revolutionary technology uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to disrupt fat cells and promote skin tightening, all with very little recovery time. This process is sometimes called radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL), and it makes a perfect complement for traditional liposuction at our Chicago, IL practice, allowing patients to achieve a more contoured appearance with minimal scarring. Learn more about BodyTite and start your journey toward a leaner, more confident look by scheduling a consultation with our team.
How Are BodyTite Treatments Performed?
BodyTite is performed in-office at our Chicago, IL location and usually takes 1 – 2 hours. We'll start by numbing the area with lidocaine and epinephrine. After that, we'll make an incision in your skin and carefully insert the BodyTite wand, gently guiding it to the fatty deposits you wish to eliminate. At the same time, we'll pass an external applicator over the surface of the skin to transmit current and liquefy unwanted fat, which will then be suctioned out. The heat used during the fat elimination will tighten your connective tissue and skin for instant skin contraction. BodyTite treatments usually take about 30 – 45 minutes per area, and you may need multiple treatments to gain the full benefits.
We typically perform BodyTite treatments at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery in combination with liposuction, but this will depend on how much fat you want to remove from the treatment area. We'll discuss which approach is ideal for you during your consultation.

Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery Reviews
Over the past two years I have worked with Dr. Schierle to achieve my postpartum 'glow up' and couldn't be more thrilled with my results. Both my chin lipo and upper bleph have left me feeling refreshed, confident and more youthful. I had both procedures in office under local anesthesia and had no issues. Not only does Dr. Schierle care about the physical result of his work but he also cares deeply about how the patient feels, which I experienced first hand during my 3 and 4 month post op appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Schierle for your plastic surgery needs- he's exceptional!

Dr. Moradian is one of a kind. Not only is he a talented surgeon but he has a great bedside manner. I am very pleased with the outcome of my procedure. I recommend Dr. Moradian very highly!
Dr. Moradian is very welcoming, professional, and talented and provides excellent care. I recommend him to anybody considering cosmetic surgery.
I love how I look and feel—that is obvious, that is the stuff that shows to the world. But what Dr. Schierle and Monika Cieszynski did for me was really so much more than that. I have struggled with loose skin and a large belly my whole life. What they REALLY did for me was free up space in my mind. I cannot put accurately into words what this does to a person. I am free. I have so much gratitude and appreciation. My body is strong and looks great—but my mind—what it did for my mind is quite profound.
