welcome back when you look in the mirror
do you notice some areas of your body
you might like to change like finally
losing that extra skin around the belly
we're getting rid of that double chin
you've been carrying around for years
well board-certified plastic surgeon dr.
Forrest Roth with West Africa surgery is
here with a brand new procedure that
targets stubborn fat and tightens the
skin at the same time dr. Roth welcome
to Houston life thank you a lot of
people may hear about this and think oh
my gosh I don't want to go under the
knife and the good news is with this
procedure you don't have to go under the
knife that's correct
this is a revolutionary new treatment
that allows us to get surgical results
in the clinic without going to the
operating room okay so explain how it
works because I understand it uses radio
waves radio frequencies so what we do is
we heat up the skin under the skin with
radiofrequency and transmit it across
the surface okay so an external
electrode and that's the animation we're
seeing right now exactly so what you're
seeing is it's heating up the fatty
layer melting the fat and tightening the
collagen okay and this procedure is
called body tight and face tight correct
so we have one handpiece that's for the
face it's a little smaller and one for
the body okay so does this work in
conjunction with lipo because we've had
a lot of folks on the show when they
talk about these these procedures but a
common complaint for customers is that
maybe they've had the fat removed but
then what do you do with all that extra
skin exactly so what you're seeing is
the melted fat needs to be removed at
the end of the procedure so before we
finish we actually liposuction the areas
that need liposuction
okay and we're seeing some
before-and-after shots right here for a
lot of folks the underarms as we just
saw that's a problem area the belly
especially for moms who have had a few
kids what kind of results can most
patients expect to achieve so what
you're gonna see is about an 80 to 90
percent of a result of what you might
see in the operating room so it's
essentially the surgical result but
without the scars without the downtime
and the cost of surgery okay and we've
seen all of these before-and-after
photos it looks like we sort of saw like
abdomen
areas that like the side flanks chin and
neck what parts of the bodies is this
good for so there's really no part of
the body you can't treat but the most
common areas are the abdomen love
handles arms and thighs face and neck
okay let's talk about some of the
benefits too because clearly the I mean
obviously people want to look and feel
their best but what are some of the
other benefits that people can expect
after having such treatment mostly
getting over the result you've always
wanted but not having to convince
yourself of having a surgical procedure
not having a large incision that's gonna
take weeks to heal right not having
anesthesia so no anesthesia it's with a
local anesthesia in the clinic and what
about any downtime because that's a
concern too I mean I think a lot of
people wait until the holidays to do
some of these procedures because they're
afraid they're gonna be bruised and
messed up for a while what are the what
are the after-effects of this procedure
so because the technology relies on
heating up the skin and the fatty layer
it actually coagulates as we go so
there's gonna be less swelling and less
bruising less downtime okay so let's say
I go in and I want to have an area
treated about how much time should I
expect for the treatment to take so
depending on the body part for example
face and neck is about two hours abdomen
and love handles maybe two and a half
okay so a little bit of time and during
the procedure
what would the patient be feeling so
during the procedure you're awake we
chitchat as we're going you'll feel some
pushing and pulling but no pain okay and
after when they walk out of the out of
your office are they gonna see the
results immediately or how long would it
take for them to see the full effect it
takes two to four weeks to start seeing
the results you have to wait a little
bit of time for the swelling to start to
go down okay so a little bit of swelling
but that seems like we could all handle
that right let's talk a little bit about
a special that you guys have right now
so right now the first hundred callers
when they call in and say that they saw
this on Houston Life they can get 20%
off that's right that's right 20% okay
and we can see the numbers there right
your screen the treatment starts at
3,600 regularly 4,500 so that's a big
savings and what is that treatment
include what we're seeing some of the
list on the screen here so because we're
not going to the hospital there's no
facility fee or anesthesia fee this
includes everything so it's the surgeon
fee the technology the local anaesthetic
we use it's all bundled into one price
that's amazing cuz usually it's like
welcome to the hospital here's a bill
for $20,000 right as you walk through
the door and for those out there who may
have been considering like a tummy tuck
or something like that is this procedure
really so effective that they could
maybe avoid the surgery entirely and go
with us great question so every patient
is different and we have to go through a
regular consultation and we'll help you
determine if you're a good candidate for
body tight or face tight got it so
before anyone goes through a treatments
they've got to come in and you gotta
like give them a consultation and figure
out what works for them definitely cool
