AccuTite – Precision Radiofrequency Skin Tightening
AccuTite is the smallest, most precise minimally invasive radiofrequency (RF) device in the InMode family. Designed for delicate, hard-to-reach areas of the face and body, AccuTite delivers controlled RF energy beneath the skin to melt small pockets of fat, contract tissue, and stimulate collagen, achieving surgical-like tightening without scars or long downtime.
Often called the “non-surgical alternative to eyelid or brow lift,” AccuTite is ideal for patients who want targeted rejuvenation where traditional surgery or larger devices would be too aggressive.
Why Patients Choose AccuTite Over Plastic Surgery
- While plastic surgery can deliver dramatic results, it often requires general anesthesia, incisions, visible scars, and weeks of recovery. For patients who want meaningful rejuvenation without these trade-offs, AccuTite offers a minimally invasive alternative.
- No large incisions or scars: Only tiny entry points are used, which heal naturally without stitches.
- Local anesthesia only: Treatment is performed comfortably in the office without the risks of general anesthesia.
- Faster recovery: Most patients return to work and social activities within days instead of weeks.
- Natural results: AccuTite tightens and lifts while preserving facial expression and structure, avoiding an over-pulled or “done” look.
- For many patients, AccuTite strikes the ideal balance — delivering noticeable tightening and contouring in delicate areas without committing to the downtime, risks, or invasiveness of surgery.

Dr. Hakim- Specialist
Dr. Jacquiline Hakim is a double board-certified dermatologist, cosmetic specialist, and a nationally recognized as a leader and trainer in advanced cosmetic dermatology. With extensive expertise in both medical and aesthetic skin care, Dr. Hakim combines artistry with medical precision, ensuring every treatment is approached with both safety and beauty in mind.
DOWNTIME
- Mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness for 3–7 days.
- Tiny entry points heal quickly with no stitches or scarring.
- Most patients resume normal activities in a few days.
- Results improve over 3–6 months as collagen builds, with continued tightening up to 12 months.
What to Expect
- Consultation: Dr. Hakim evaluates the treatment area, skin laxity, and fat distribution to determine if AccuTite is the best option.
- Treatment: Performed under local anesthesia in-office, typically lasting under an hour.
- Post-Care: Patients wear a supportive garment (if applicable) for optimal healing.
- Results: Noticeable tightening and contouring within weeks, with progressive improvement over months.
1. How It Works
AccuTite uses radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) technology:
- A microcannula is inserted beneath the skin through a tiny entry point.
- Controlled RF energy flows between the internal probe and external electrode.
- This heats and contracts connective tissue, melting fat and tightening skin.
- The heat stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin for long-term rejuvenation.
- This dual action — immediate contraction + long-term collagen remodeling — makes AccuTite one of the most advanced non-surgical contouring options available today.
2 Post Treatment Process:
Recovery Process
- The recovery process after AccuTite is straightforward, with most patients returning to daily activities within days. Because it is minimally invasive, there are no stitches, long incisions, or prolonged healing — but it still requires careful aftercare to optimize results.
Immediately After Treatment
- Small entry points are covered with tiny dressings or steri-strips, which usually heal within a few days.
- Patients may notice swelling, mild bruising, or tenderness in the treated area.
- A supportive garment or wrap may be recommended for areas like the jawline, chin, or body to minimize swelling and enhance contouring.
First Few Days
- Swelling and bruising typically peak within 48 hours and then steadily improve.
- Mild discomfort can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
- Cold compresses may be used intermittently to reduce swelling.
1–2 Weeks
- Most bruising and swelling resolve within 7–10 days.
- Patients can resume work and social activities within 3–5 days for facial treatments, and about a week for body areas.
- Entry points are usually well-healed by this stage and barely visible
Long-Term Results
- Initial tightening may be visible within a few weeks.
- Collagen stimulation continues for 3–6 months, with results progressively improving.
- Full effects typically last several years, especially when combined with a healthy lifestyle and good skin care.
3 How it works:
- InMode Microneedling is more than just a cosmetic procedure—it’s an investment in your skin’s long-term health. By harnessing advanced technology in harmony with your body’s natural processes, it helps you look refreshed, rejuvenated, and confident. Whether you’re looking to soften the signs of aging, smooth scars, or simply achieve healthier-looking skin, this treatment offers a safe, effective, and transformative solution.
Role of Dermatologists in Treatment:
1. Expert Evaluation
- Not every patient is an ideal candidate for AccuTite. Dr. Hakim carefully evaluates skin laxity, fat distribution, and overall anatomy to determine whether AccuTite, FaceTite, Morpheus8, or another treatment would yield the best results. This ensures patients receive the most effective and safest option for their unique concerns.
Anatomical Mastery & Safety
- AccuTite involves delivering energy beneath the skin with precision. Without expert control, there is risk of burns, nerve irritation, or uneven results. Dr. Hakim’s deep knowledge of facial anatomy, skin layers, and vascular structures allows her to sculpt with precision while keeping safety as the top priority.
3. Advanced Energy Control & Customization
- AccuTite’s technology relies on controlled heat delivery. Dr. Hakim customizes the energy level, treatment depth, and duration for each patient, ensuring tissue contracts effectively while avoiding overtreatment. This personalization leads to natural, balanced outcomes tailored to each individual’s face and body.
4. Integrated Treatment Approach
- Skin tightening often works best when combined with other treatments. Dr. Hakim designs comprehensive plans that may include Morpheus8 for skin texture, fillers for volume, or neuromodulators for fine lines. By layering modalities, she creates results that look harmonious, refreshed, and never overdone.
