FACEtite

FaceTite is a minimally invasive radiofrequency-assisted (RFAL) procedure designed to tighten skin, reduce localized fat, and redefine facial contours without the need for traditional surgery.

It's part of the platform BodyTite, Advanced technology for facial and body remodeling with results comparable to a mild or moderate surgical facelift, but with a shorter recovery time.

In Medellín, the Dr. Monica Pineda She is a pioneer on the BodyTite platform, with more than 500 success stories nationally and internationally, positioning itself as a benchmark in facial redefinition treatments with radiofrequency technology.

Frequently Asked Questions

FaceTite is indicated for:

  • Mild to moderate sagging of the face and neck

     

  • Double chin and submental fat accumulation

     

  • Loss of mandibular definition

     

  • Sagging cheeks

     

  • Aging of the lower third of the face

     

It is ideal for patients who want a lifting effect without visible scars or open surgery.

FaceTite uses bipolar radiofrequency through an internal microcannula that transmits controlled thermal energy under the skin, while an external electrode monitors the surface temperature.

This process produces:

  1. Coagulation and localized fat reduction

     

  2. Immediate contraction of collagen fibers

     

  3. Stimulation of new collagen (neocollagenesis)

     

  4. Progressive skin retraction in the following months

     

The system features intelligent thermal monitoring to ensure safety and accuracy.
