Skin Tightening
Duration
2 hours
NYC Lipo's skin tightening menu includes FaceTite and BodyTite radiofrequency-assisted procedures and Cellulaze laser-based cellulite treatment. FaceTite tightens facial and neck skin through bipolar RF delivered via a micro-cannula, offering a result without general anesthesia. BodyTite applies the same technology to the body. Cellulaze targets the fibrous bands beneath the skin that cause cellulite dimpling using a side-firing laser fiber.
About this treatment
Skin laxity and surface irregularity are addressed at NYC Lipo through a combination of energy-based devices overseen by both Dr Elie Levine and Dr Jody Levine, whose dual plastic surgery and dermatology expertise informs treatment selection.
FaceTite uses radiofrequency energy delivered through a bipolar handpiece — a thin probe inserted beneath the skin through a micro-incision, with a second electrode on the skin's surface. The RF current heats the subdermal tissue to a precisely controlled temperature, causing immediate collagen contraction and triggering a remodeling response that continues for months post-procedure. Clinical studies show skin surface contraction of approximately 40% in…
BodyTite applies the same bipolar RF platform to larger body areas: the abdomen, flanks, inner thighs, upper arms, and knees. It is often combined with liposuction (the RF probe liquefies fat before aspiration) or performed alongside abdominoplasty to extend the tightening effect beyond what excisional surgery alone achieves. Quantum RF is a surface-only radiofrequency device used for superficial skin texture refinement without any invasive component.
