Dr. Hughes' BODYTITE Procedures in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills
Dr. Kenneth Hughes, MD from his new surgery center in Los Angeles has helped revolutionize the skin and tissue tightening options for patients with his successes made with the new Bodytite technology. Before the advent of this new technology, there was not a great option for patients who had too much skin laxity to be happy and too little skin laxity to merit a larger scar. Through his own proprietary techniques, Dr. Hughes can create a much tighter skin envelope and avoid larger scars with Bodytite procedures.

The liposuction revision and BBL (Brazilian buttlift) with Bodytite created a result that few, if any, could produce.
WHAT IS BODYTITE?
BodyTite is a less invasive solution for individuals who are looking to tighten tissues while simultaneously tightening skin. This procedure can be helpful to improve saggy skin after weight loss or due to aging. Dr. Hughes utilizes it in liposuction revision to remedy the lumps, bumps, dents, divots, and deformities as well as improve loose skin wherever it may exist.
BodyTite is a minimally invasive procedure that shapes, tightens and lifts without a larger scar that would be necessary in excisional procedures like tummy tuck, thigh lift, arm lift, bra line back lift, knee lift, lower posterior body lift, and excisional buttlifts. Bodytite will create about 40% skin contraction or improvement, but it will not reproduce the tightness of a well executed excisional procedure like tummy tuck, thigh lift, or arm lift. Patients should not expect this type of result, and Dr. Hughes emphasizes this to patients very clearly prior to undertaking Bodytite procedures.
BodyTite uses RF (Radio-Frequency) technology that addresses some of the shortcomings associated with traditional liposuction or surgical body lifts. Bodytite is NOT liposuction and should not be thought of as such. Liposuction can be combined with Bodytite for best results and frequently is used in combination.
WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?
If you can imagine it, you can do it: stomach, arms, chest, knees and inner/outer thighs are some of the most common treatment zones. Multiple areas can be treated in one visit. Each zone will take approximately 30 minutes of treatment.
HOW QUICKLY WILL I SEE RESULTS?
Results can be seen immediately, but the best results will be noticeable after 3-6 months.
WHAT IS THE DOWNTIME?
Downtime with bodytite alone is really very minimal, and many patients will be without pain or discomfort even immediately following the procedure. This does not mean that there will not be swelling or bruising. It also does not mean that you will heal immediately. If Bodytite is used exclusively, patients should expect at least 1 to 2 weeks off from exercise. If Bodytite is combined with liposuction, patients should refrain from exercise for 6 weeks.
What is Different about Bodytite compared to Smartlipo, Laserlipo, Vaserlipo, etc.?
Bodytite utilizes a radiofrequency model that is unique to these devices. Each of the devices is bipolar, in which energy oscillates between the two poles to increase energy delivery and efficiency. In addition, the energy is better contained and results in fewer and smaller burns, if any, compared to the older monopolar devices like smart lipo, laser lipo, vaser lipo, and the great numbers of others with older technology. Although it is tempting to lump all technological advances together and categorize them as the same, this is one case in which patients and surgeons alike would be foolish to designate these technologies as the same or equal.
What Separates the Bodytite Results of Dr. Hughes from those of other plastic surgeons?
It is not just the technology but how that technology is utilized, which results in the phenomenal results seen in Dr. Hughes’s before and after Bodytite gallery. Dr. Hughes has received patients from all over the US and all over the world to obtain his expertise in these bodytite procedures and for difficult skin laxity and liposuction revision procedures that were considered by many other surgeons to be UNCORRECTABLE. There is hope for these deformities, and Dr. Hughes is bringing hope to patients every day with these bodytite procedures for revision surgery.
What Areas Can Be Treated with Bodytite with Dr. Hughes?
Dr. Hughes has created great results for virtually all areas of skin laxity. He has improved hundreds of areas including abdomen, sides, back, bra rolls, buttocks, inner thighs, outer thighs, posterior thighs, knees, calves, arms, axillae and armpits, face and neck.
While the arm lift or thigh lift or tummy tuck is certainly effective in its removal of tissue and correcting issues of skin laxity and reducing size and circumference, the scar produced is often objectionable to many patients. Dr. Kenneth Hughes has extensive experience and amazing successes with the Bodytite technology to avoid the longer scars associated with arm lifts and thigh lifts as well as other excisional procedures such as tummy tuck, butt lifts, etc.
Bodytite can be used in conjunction with liposuction to tighten the tissues of the arms or thighs or tummy or wherever by about 40%. These types of results will not be achievable by another technology or my another surgeon. Please look at the amazing Bodytite results in the before and after galleries. Although Bodytite will never reproduce the excisional surgical results, optimal treatment by Dr. Hughes can come pretty close.
