Skin Tightening
Targeted solutions for stubborn fat, loose skin, and muscle definition — without surgery or significant downtime.
One of the most common things we hear from patients is, "I think I need body contouring." But body contouring isn't actually one treatment — and choosing the right one starts with understanding the concern you're actually trying to address.
Some patients are struggling with stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. Others are dealing with loose, lax skin after weight loss or pregnancy. Some are focused on building muscle definition and core strength. And many people are experiencing a combination of all three.
That's why at SoVous, we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Our providers take the time to understand your individual goals and recommend the treatment — or combination of treatments — that's right for your body.
We offer four of the most advanced non-invasive body contouring technologies available:
Target Stubborn Fat & Smooth Cellulite
Working out consistently but still struggling with stubborn pockets of fat? You may be the perfect candidate for BodyFX.
BodyFX is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that targets stubborn areas of fat resistant to diet and exercise. It uses a combination of vacuum-assisted suction, radiofrequency energy, and deep tissue heating to deliver controlled energy to targeted fat cells — damaging them through a natural process called apoptosis, while simultaneously stimulating collagen production to help improve skin firmness.
What BodyFX can help with:
Common treatment areas: Abdomen, thighs, arms, flanks
BodyFX is FDA-approved, non-surgical, and requires minimal downtime. Patients may experience temporary redness, warmth, or mild bruising in the treated area, which typically subsides within a few hours.
Recommended protocol: Once a week for 6–8 weeks per treatment area.
Tighten & Firm Loose Skin
Loose skin and stubborn fat aren't the same thing — and they require different solutions.
After weight loss or significant body changes, it's common to notice increased skin laxity even after reaching your goal weight. That's because when skin is stretched over time, it loses its elasticity and collagen — like a rubber band that's been stretched too many times.
Forma Plus uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat the skin and underlying tissue, stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin. The result? Firmer, tighter-looking skin with little to no downtime. Many patients describe the experience as similar to a hot stone massage.
(Forma, the smaller handpiece, is used on the face and neck. Forma Plus is designed for larger body areas.)
What Forma Plus can help with:
Common treatment areas: Abdomen, arms, thighs, knees, flanks
Recommended protocol: Once a week for 6–8 weeks.
Empower TONE: Build Muscle Definition & Strengthen Your Core
Imagine achieving the equivalent of 20,000 crunches — while simply lying down. That's TONE.
Empower TONE uses electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to trigger powerful, involuntary muscle contractions. A single 30-minute session can generate up to 20,000 muscle contractions, helping to strengthen and define targeted muscle groups in ways that are difficult to replicate through exercise alone.
TONE is FDA-approved for diastasis recti — a condition in which the connective tissue between the abdominal muscles thins and separates, most commonly after pregnancy. TONE can help bring those muscles back together while also improving overall core strength and muscle definition.
What TONE can help with:
Common treatment areas: Abdomen, arms, glutes
Recommended protocol: Once a week for 6–8 weeks.
Morpheus8 Body: Advanced Skin Remodeling & Deep Tissue Tightening
For patients dealing with more significant skin laxity, textural irregularities, or crepiness — or those who want more dramatic tightening results — Morpheus8 Body offers a deeper level of treatment.
Morpheus8 Body combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to remodel skin and underlying tissue at a deeper level than surface-only treatments. The RF energy is delivered through a matrix of micro-pins, reaching the deeper layers of the dermis and subdermal tissue to stimulate collagen and elastin remodeling from the inside out.
What Morpheus8 Body can help with:
Common treatment areas: Abdomen, inner arms, thighs, flanks, and other larger body areas
Morpheus8 Body typically requires some downtime and is recommended for patients looking for more significant, longer-lasting results.
Just as body contouring isn't one-size-fits-all, neither are treatment plans. Many patients benefit most from a combination of technologies tailored to their specific concerns.
| Concern | Recommended Treatment |
| Stubborn fat | BodyFX |
| Loose or lax skin | Forma Plus |
| Muscle definition | Empower TONE |
| Advanced skin tightening & texture | Morpheus8 Body |
Of course, not every patient is a candidate for these treatments — and some concerns are better addressed through other options we offer at SoVous, including Sculptra, PDO threads, Botox, and Kybella.
