So body tight can be done through small openings inside the inner diameter of the belly button. And you can hide all this pretty easily. So once you fill the area with fluid before you do liposuction, you can actually do the body tight. You just use a layer ultrasound gel, and body tight is like a pair of electrified forceps. One limb goes beneath the skin, one's above the skin, and you treat these areas. Think of like a pie chart. Just do it in quadrants. We use a thermo gap thermographic camera to evaluate the intensity of the treatment coupled to the feedback of the machine. And I won't parse it out too much, but after a limited treatment time, you can actually have tightened the skin in real time. Then you can go and do the liposuction. You can thin this out. You can debulk areas without a great deal of concern for loosening up the skin too much.
