NYC-based bodySCULPT® Launches InMode’s Innovative EmbraceRF for Facial Rejuvenation

bodySCULPT®, an established AAAASF-accredited plastic surgery practice based in Manhattan, New York has announced the addition of an entirely new procedure EmbraceRF. InMode’s EmbraceRF is an advanced minimally-invasive radiofrequency treatment that uses a combination of FaceTite and Morpheus8 for facial rejuvenation. The procedure is ideal if you are not yet ready for a facelift, but want to tighten your flabby facial skin. Experts in minimally-invasive and non-invasive treatments, bodySCULPT®’s plastic surgeons – Dr Christopher Chia and Dr. Spero Theodorou have done extensive research in radiofrequency-assisted treatments and have pioneered scarless procedures using this state-of-the-art technology. In the recently held 14th Vegas Cosmetic Surgery Symposium, Dr. Chia made a presentation on radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) for arm tightening, while Dr. Theodorou and two other top physicians hosted a panel at the conference to unveil the new EmbraceRF procedure. These skilled surgeons are pioneering a new concept of facial rejuvenation, adipose-remodeling. This is the art of strategically molding the fat in the face instead of surgically pulling the skin to tighten.

The typical signs of premature facial aging are wrinkling and sagging, especially around the jowls, chin, mouth and other areas of the lower face. EmbraceRF combines FaceTite and Morpheus8 to tighten the skin without scars and restore the natural curves of the face and neck– in one single treatment.

While FaceTite is a non-invasive RFAL (Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis) contouring solution for the face, Morpheus8 is the first and only FDA-cleared Subdermal Adipose Remodeling Device (SARD), device to mold the fat sub-dermally to effectively address aging concerns in the lower face.

By tightening the skin and improving the appearance of deep wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation issues, EmbraceRF can provide a more youthful, fresh appearance. The procedure generates heat to “mold” the fat of the face in strategic positions in order to augment the jaw line and rejuvenate the neck.

Dr. Spero Theodorou, a leading plastic surgeon at bodySCULPT®, describes the procedure as, “lipo-remodeling of the face, using the patient’s own fat to mold like playdo, and leave it in the face, unlike any other procedure.” According to him, “EmbraceRF is a combination of modalities in a new protocol that delivers a reproducible result. It is the first we’ve seen that can effectively induce adipose-remodeling for the face. Essentially, this procedure allows our patients to retain their youthful ‘fullness’ of the face while refining the jaw and neckline for an overall natural result.”
