Achieve a smoother, more contoured look with BodyFX, a non-invasive treatment designed to reduce stubborn fat and cellulite and improve skin tone. Ideal for areas like the abdomen, thighs, and flanks, BodyFX uses radiofrequency energy to target and shape problem areas, giving you the refined silhouette you desire.
Overview
BodyFX is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that combines radiofrequency energy, deep tissue heating, and suction-coupled negative pressure to reduce fat and improve skin texture. The radiofrequency energy penetrates the skin to heat underlying fat cells, causing them to shrink and promoting collagen production. This thermal effect tightens the skin, while the vacuum pressure enhances fat breakdown by encouraging blood flow. Over time, the treated areas become smoother and more toned.
Indications for BodyFX:
- Stubborn fat deposits on the abdomen, thighs, flanks, and buttocks
- Appearance of cellulite on various body areas
- Loose skin resulting from aging or weight loss
- Uneven skin texture and tone
- Areas resistant to diet and exercise
Procedure Details
During the BodyFX procedure, your aesthetic provider will apply a handheld device to the targeted areas. You’ll feel gentle suction as the device pulls the skin, followed by controlled bursts of radiofrequency energy heating the tissue beneath. This process is painless, and you may feel a warming sensation as the fat cells are treated. The procedure takes about 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the area. Afterward, you can return to your normal activities immediately with no downtime.
Recovery & Results
After BodyFX, there’s no downtime, allowing you to resume your normal activities right away. You may experience mild redness, warmth, or slight swelling in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few hours.
For optimal results, multiple sessions are recommended, usually once a week over six to eight weeks. You’ll begin noticing improvements in skin texture and fat reduction after a few sessions, with full results becoming visible about three months after your final treatment, revealing a smoother, more toned appearance over time.
BodyFX FAQs
Is BodyFX Safe?
Yes, BodyFX is a safe, FDA-approved treatment for non-invasive body contouring. It uses radiofrequency energy to heat and destroy fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues. Side effects are minimal, and most people experience only mild redness or warmth.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
For the best results, most patients need six to eight treatments about a week apart. Your practitioner will create a personalized plan based on your goals and the areas being treated.
Does BodyFX Hurt?
BodyFX is generally painless. You may feel a warming sensation and gentle suction during the procedure, but it’s typically well-tolerated. Some patients compare it to a warm massage.
How Soon Will I See the Results?
While you may notice some initial improvements after a few sessions, the most noticeable results will appear over time. It typically takes around three months after your final treatment to see the full benefits as your body continues to metabolize and eliminate the fat cells.

BodyFX is an excellent non-surgical option for reducing small to moderate fat deposits and improving skin tone. However, for larger amounts of fat removal or more significant body contouring, surgical procedures like liposuction may be more appropriate.
