What is BodyTite at JanigaMDs?
As a minimally invasive treatment, safe, and – most importantly – effective treatment for skin tightening, BodyTite is an advanced body contouring procedure to help improve loose and sagging skin and stubborn fat in a single office visit.
BodyTite can be used for both body contouring and fat removal. This innovative machine lifts, tightens, and shapes the contours of your body with little downtime. It’s one of the most popular skin tightening, skin laxity, and body contouring procedures on the market because it combines skin tightening, fat melting, and even liposuction all in one procedure. It can produce results with a single treatment.
Before Your BodyTite Body Contouring Procedure

Before your BodyTite procedure, you’ll want to first schedule a consultation with Dr. Timothy Janiga. During this appointment, he will review your medical history, discuss your goals, and answer any questions you have. He’ll determine if this is the right procedure for you. If it is, he will give you pre-treatment instructions. You’ll want to avoid blood thinners, alcohol, and smoking. You’ll also want to stay as hydrated as possible, stay at a stable weight, and ensure you’re ready for the recovery process.
The BodyTite Procedure
During a BodyTite minimally-invasive procedure, our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Timothy Janiga, uses Radiofrequency Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL) radiofrequency energy as an alternative to traditional liposuction and plastic surgery to remove excess fat. After local anesthesia and sedative are administered, a port site is made, and a wand is inserted under the skin’s surface. The BodyTite device is moved over the target area, using RF energy to melt away stubborn fat deposits, tighten skin, and contour your body. This is usually followed by liposuction through the same incision site to remove the melted fat cells and further contour the area.
The BodyTite procedure is ideal for areas of the body with unwanted fat and loose skin. Some of the most popular treatment sites include the stomach, arms, male chest, knees, and thighs. You can receive treatment in multiple areas in a single visit. Each area takes approximately 30 minutes to treat. BodyTite is an outpatient procedure so you can return home right away.

After Your BodyTite Procedure
Meet Your Specialists
BodyTite recovery is minimal compared to a tummy tuck, or other surgical body contouring procedures performed under general anesthesia. Generally, one can expect to recover for a few days, though it can take up to 10 days, depending on how large of an area was treated. During your customized consultation with Dr. Janiga, you will discuss what to expect from your specific BodyTite treatment.
What to Expect After Your BodyTite Treatment
BodyTite results are almost immediate but will continue to improve for up to a year. Most patients enjoy slimmer arms, a toned and tightened abdomen, a reshaped lower back, and tighter inner and outer thighs. They also look forward to overall tighter skin, reduced body fat, and less excess skin.
