Quick answer · What is Body InMode?
Body InMode is a non-surgical body contouring treatment using InMode handpieces. Body FX combines radiofrequency, vacuum suction and high-voltage pulses to damage fat cells, which the body then clears, while Forma Plus heats the dermis to tighten skin. Each area takes 20–40 minutes with little to no downtime. Most patients need three to five sessions 2–4 weeks apart, with contouring building over one to three months.

How it works
Radiofrequency and suction that treat fat and skin together
The Body FX handpiece draws tissue into the tip with gentle suction, heats it with radiofrequency and applies high-voltage pulses that disrupt fat cells. The body clears these cells gradually over the following weeks. Forma Plus then heats the dermis to firm the skin, so contours look slimmer without looking loose.
-
Body assessment
Your doctor checks fat thickness and skin laxity, and chooses Body FX, Forma Plus or both for each area.
-
RF treatment
The handpiece glides over the area with suction and warmth. It feels like a deep, warm massage with short pulses.
-
Gradual contouring
Skin may feel smoother within a couple of weeks. Fat reduction and firming build over one to three months.
Before & after
A smoother, more defined silhouette
Most patients notice a slimmer, smoother outline on the abdomen or flanks and firmer skin after a course of sessions, with the clearest change one to three months after treatment.
