What is BodyFX?

BodyFX is a non-invasive procedure designed to eliminate stubborn fat without surgery. Despite diet and exercise, certain areas of fat can persist. For those seeking an alternative to the pain and recovery associated with liposuction, BodyFX offers a convenient solution. It not only reduces fat but also improves the appearance of cellulite in treated areas. Plus, no recovery time is needed, making it a simple, effective way to achieve your body goals.

How does BodyFX work?

BodyFX uses radiofrequency waves to target fat and skin tissues. These waves cause both fat and skin cells to contract, breaking down fat molecules while tightening the skin. After treatment, the body naturally eliminates the broken-down fat, and the skin continues to tighten over time. In about six to twelve weeks, you’ll notice a visible transformation in targeted areas.

What happens during a BodyFX treatment?

For optimal body shaping and cellulite reduction, six to eight weekly treatment sessions are recommended. Each BodyFX session lasts around 10 minutes for a six-by-six-inch area. Before treatment, let your provider know if you have any open wounds, infections, bruises, or sunburns to avoid complications.

During the session, your provider will use a handpiece that applies suction to target fatty tissue, delivering warmth through radiofrequency energy and creating a gentle pulling sensation similar to a deep tissue massage. For smaller areas, a smaller handpiece, MiniFX, is used. Once the tissue warms up, controlled energy pulses are sent to destroy fat cells. Although most patients find this manageable, some experience slight discomfort or sharp pains. If you’re sensitive, you can ask your provider to lower the intensity, though this may affect the results.

After treatment, no recovery time is needed, though you may see some redness in the area for a day or two. Staying hydrated before and after your session can aid your body in eliminating dead fat cells.

What areas can you treat?

Body FX is a versatile, non-invasive treatment effective for targeting common problem areas where fat accumulates or cellulite forms, including:

• Abdomen
• Arms
• Back
• Bra area
• Buttocks
• Hips
• Love handles
• Inner and outer thighs

With BodyFX, you can contour multiple areas of the body without surgery, achieving a smoother, more toned appearance, especially in spots where diet and exercise alone may not be enough.

How long do the results last?

You’ll begin to see results from BodyFX treatments within three months, with continued improvements over the following weeks. However, results are not permanent and may diminish if weight or fat returns.

To maintain results, follow-up sessions are recommended every three to four months. Without these, results may fade within a year. After your initial treatments, improvements can last up to six months!

What are the benefits of BodyFX?

Many methods of non-surgical body contouring exist for people who cannot have surgery due to medical reasons or simply prefer a non-invasive approach. These options help individuals achieve the look they desire without surgery. Here are some expanded benefits of BodyFX treatments:

Reduces Cellulite and Eliminates Fat Cells

BodyFX targets areas with stubborn fat and cellulite, breaking down fat cells and smoothing out dimpled skin. This dual-action approach improves the appearance of cellulite, leaving skin visibly smoother.

Cost-Effective Option

BodyFX is generally less expensive than other non-invasive fat reduction treatments and significantly more affordable than surgical liposuction. While the results may not fully match those of liposuction, BodyFX offers a more accessible alternative with the added benefit of skin tightening.

Non-Invasive and No Surgery Required

BodyFX requires no incisions, anesthesia, or recovery time, making it ideal for those who prefer a non-surgical option. The procedure uses radiofrequency technology to contour and shape the body gently and effectively.

Tightens Skin Effectively

In addition to reducing fat, BodyFX stimulates collagen production, which helps to tighten the skin over time. This added benefit makes BodyFX a valuable option for those looking to firm up sagging areas.

No Downtime Needed

BodyFX has no recovery period, so you can immediately resume your daily activities. This feature makes it ideal for individuals with busy schedules who want results without the need for rest days.

Continue Regular Activities During Treatments

BodyFX sessions are quick and convenient, fitting easily into your schedule without major lifestyle changes. You can receive treatments and continue with your day as usual.

Risks of BodyFX

As with any treatment, BodyFX comes with some minor risks, though serious complications are rare. Here are a few reported side effects:

• Bruising: In rare cases, patients may experience mild bruising at the treatment site, typically resolving within a few days.
• Temporary Numbness: Some people report a temporary numb sensation in the treated area, but this usually fades shortly after the procedure.
• Swelling: Mild swelling may occur but generally subsides within a few days, leaving the area looking and feeling normal.
• Redness: It’s common for the skin to appear slightly red following treatment, though this typically fades within a day or two.

Who is a BodyFX candidate?

BodyFX treatment is generally suitable for adults of any age who are looking to reduce unwanted fat without undergoing invasive procedures like liposuction. Ideal candidates have realistic expectations about the results and are aware of both the benefits and risks.

However, BodyFX is not recommended for pregnant individuals or anyone with a pacemaker. Additionally, this treatment should be avoided near areas with active cancer, lesions, or infections to ensure safety.
