SUMMARY
In this informative live session, Dr. Spero Theodorou and Dr. Christopher Chia demonstrate radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) using the BodyTite platform for arm contouring. Conducted under local in-office anesthesia, the procedure addresses excess arm fat and skin laxity, offering patients a minimally invasive alternative to traditional excisional surgery. The physicians discuss technique, safety, and expected results in real time, making this session highly educational for aesthetic practitioners.
