What Is AccuTite?
As you get older, your body's natural collagen and elastin supply begin to drop, leading to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin on the face and body. To fight visible signs of aging, Elysium SurgiSpa is pleased to offer AccuTite, a minimally invasive skin tightening procedure. AccuTite utilizes radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology to heat up the skin to remove fat and encourage collagen production, helping patients achieve a firmer, younger skin appearance. AccuTite is the smallest known minimally invasive RF contraction device available, making it ideal for precisely treating signs of aging in harder-to-reach areas. To enhance your results, AccuTite can be paired with other nonsurgical anti-aging treatments, like FaceTite, fillers, and more.

How Does AccuTite Work?
AccuTite uses a precise technique that is ideal to treat anti-aging concerns in more delicate areas, such as the brows, marionette lines, inner thighs, abdomen, jowls, and neck. This is an outpatient treatment performed at our Chicago, IL office. Once you are comfortable, we will administer local anesthesia before a tiny cannula is placed under your skin. The device delivers RF energy to melt fat cells while also stimulating collagen production to increase the skin's firmness. The treatment should last about 45 minutes per treated area. Once your procedure is finished, you may experience swelling, but this should fade within three days or so. AccuTite is minimally invasive so you can return to your normal activities after your treatment. You should begin to see gradual improvements within about 3 – 8 weeks as collagen is built with outcomes typically lasting for several years.
