Lasers, light and RF energy all exist on the electromagnetic spectrum. InMode Aesthetic in Los Gatos, CA, devices harness this energy to marvelous ends. In the skilled hands of Dr. Bitter, you will be transformed into your most brilliant, beautiful self!
BodyFX™ uses radiofrequency energy, suction and deep tissue heating to reshape the body. This treatment is a non-invasive solution that can reduce cellulite and improve body shape without liposuction or other invasive surgeries.
BodyFX improves body shape and the appearance of cellulite. Most often, BodyFX is used on the abdomen, hips, love handles and thighs.
BodyFX is non-invasive. It feels like a warming, pulling sensation. The RF energy heats the tissues and the vacuum pulses contour your body. We recommend eight weekly sessions for optimal results.
There is no downtime after treatment with BodyFX. Patients may notice redness and warmth in the treated area for a few hours. You will observe softer, smoother skin after just a few treatments.

Diolaze™ uses a diode laser beam to target hair follicles at the root. The procedure removes unwanted hair and prevents future hair growth. It is a swift and efficient treatment with a substantial “footprint” to treat large areas.
Diolaze may be used to permanently reduce hair growth on the face and body.
Treatment with Diolaze is non-invasive, virtually painless and quite quick. Most patients need four to six treatments for the best results.
After a few sessions, patients will soon notice a significant reduction in hair growth. Eventually, the treated area(s) will be smooth and nearly hair-free.

Forma™ uses radiofrequency energy to improve skin elasticity by stimulating new collagen formation. Patients of all skin types who have wrinkles, fine lines or sun damage can use Forma for natural-looking results.
Forma targets the deep dermal layers to improve skin elasticity all over the face and body.
Forma employs a non-invasive approach to smooth and tighten the skin with precise technology. The nearly painless treatment comes with no downtime. We recommend patients undergo weekly treatment sessions for six weeks.
After their treatment, patients may have slight redness in the treated area for a few hours. No downtime will be required. After a few treatments, you will observe improvements in skin tone, elasticity and smoothness.
Forma Plus employs a subdermal heating applicator to improve skin tone by stimulating collagen production. Patients of all skin types can have smoother and more youthful skin.
Forma Plus effectively treats skin laxity and evens out textural irregularities. Skin becomes smoother, tighter and more toned. Common treatment areas include the upper arms, thighs, abdomen and back.
Treatment with Forma Plus is non-invasive. It feels like being pampered by a hot stone massage. We recommend weekly treatment sessions for six to eight weeks to achieve the best results.
There is no downtime associated with Forma Plus treatments, only the possibility of slight redness in the treated area. This will subside within a few hours and will not affect your ability to return to normal activities. Schedule a series of treatments for optimum outcomes.

Look and feel younger with Fractora.™ The device uses a fractional laser beam to rejuvenate and resurface the skin. Its technology reduces wrinkles and slows the signs of aging.
Fractora can treat areas in need of skin renewal. It is most often used on the face. The eyelids, forehead, cheeks, mouth and neck can all benefit from Fractora. Fractora also treats wrinkles, discoloration and acne scars.
Fractora is minimally invasive. It bridges the gap between fractional lasers and surgical procedures by remodeling tissue and collagen to improve skin appearance. Patients typically need between one and six treatment sessions to achieve their goals.
Patient downtime after a Fractora treatment is minimal. Makeup may be applied after one or two days. You may see small lesions after a few days and slight redness may persist for up to a week. Patients should moisturize the treated area and avoid sun exposure to protect their skin. Visible results are immediately apparent. Greater results will become more noticeable after two weeks. Your results will improve for up to three months after treatment.
Lumecca™ uses powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) technology to treat skin pigmentation and vascular lesions. With just one or two treatment sessions, Lumecca can improve age spots, sun damage, rosacea and freckles. Luemecca also rubs out red vascular lesions, spider veins and purple port-wine stains.
Lumecca can treat areas of skin discoloration all over the body. Some of the most commonly treated areas include the face, neck, hands, arms, legs and décolletage.
Lumecca provides a comfortable, quick and safe treatment. It will improve skin appearance, texture and tone. One to three sessions is all that may be needed to produce satisfying results.
After treatment with Lumecca, patients may have redness and a warm sensation in the treated area for about one hour. The treated pigmented spots may appear to darken for 24 to 48 hours, but they will then flake off over the following week. For vascular lesions, the vein will slowly disappear after a few days. Results can be seen in as soon as one or two days; they will improve over the next two weeks.

Our BodyTite procedures are powered by RFAL (Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis) technology. The device uses an insertion port to achieve surgery-like results. RFAL is a non-excisional procedure that helps the skin to contract so that the treated area appears tighter and more toned.
BodyTite treats skin laxity, especially for those who have significant issues with skin elasticity.
BodyTite sends an electrical current from to the tip of a cannula through the external electrode. Dr. Bitter will place it on the surface of your skin. He will focus the energy to contract the fibrous septa and catalyze fat coagulation.
With no scalpels or incisions, patients will have a quick and painless healing process. BodyTite causes the skin to contract so that it appears dramatically tighter and firmer. No surgery is necessary to produce surgery-like results.
