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
Dr. Moradian performed an incredible job! He’s one of the sweetest and compassionate doctors/surgeons I’ve ever encountered. He made me feel incredibly comfortable and relieved, putting all my anxieties to rest. I underwent a transaxillary breast augmentation, and I’m thrilled with the results. All of my friends and family are blown away by my outcome. I have a new sense of confidence that has changed my life. While I was in my recovery room, Dr. Moradian not only took care of me but also spoke to my family and answered all their questions. He exudes a sense of safety and ensures that you receive the best possible outcomes. He took the time to personally check up on me and kindly encouraged me to reach out to him. Dr. Moradian genuinely cares about your concerns and takes the time to explain everything in detail. I am so fortunate to have found him!
Simon was phenomenal. I decided at age 16 to gauge my ears and stretched them far beyond the point of them closing on their own. I am getting married and wanted to be able to wear regular earrings for the first time in 20 years. Simon came to rescue after I was quoted waaaaay too much from another surgeon that basically wanted to cut my ears that day without letting them heal on their own and told me he could inject them with filler after they healed (like, WHAT?) Simon was so thorough and patient during our consultation and even more so during the actual procedure. He let my ears close naturally for a while to avoid removing too much tissue so they would look normal and healthy after they healed. EVERYONE is shocked (including me) that they look so good. You would never know that I had enormous holes in my ears for 20 years. 10/10 recommend for any procedure.
Dr. Schierle and his team are THE BEST!! I got breast augmentation on January 9th. It’s Perfect! Love my new look! I feel more confidence now than before. Thank you again for your best work.
Had DCF rhinoplasty with Dr. Schierle, Dr. Moradian, and Monica in Dec of 2024. Definitely THE best experience I had ! The consultation was personalized, you could tell they are some of the best surgeons in the game. I never had any surgeries, so I was very nervous. But they made the process so smooth. I loved the results so much. They kept my natural beauty and elevated the new nose to complement my face better. Even some of my close friends wanted to book a consultation with them after seeing my new nose! 100000/10 recommend!
Amazing experience with Robyn for all of my injection and skincare needs! The staff is amazing and highly skilled. The entire staff is super welcoming and warm. I always recommend to my friends and family!
