Find Your Best Approach to Body Contouring
Quantum RF Body Contouring
Tighten loose skin, reduce localized fat, and improve definition in one personalized treatment.
Quantum RF uses a thin cannula inserted through tiny entry points to deliver controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin. This energy targets localized fat, contracts tissue, and stimulates collagen to help create firmer, smoother contours. Your treatment also includes Morpheus8 to further support smoother, firmer-looking skin.
Best For:
- Loose or lax skin
- Stubborn localized fat
- Abdomen, double chin, flanks, arms, and thighs
- Post-weight-loss or post-liposuction laxity
Key Benefits:
- One treatment per area in most cases
- No large surgical incisions
- Morpheus8 skin renewal included
- Addresses skin and localized fat together
Quantum RF + Liposuction
Add greater fat removal when Quantum RF alone may not be enough to reach your contouring goals.
For patients who would benefit from additional fat removal, Dr. McKee may recommend combining traditional liposuction with Quantum RF. Dr. McKee will evaluate your anatomy, degree of skin laxity, amount of localized fat, and goals to determine whether combining the treatments is appropriate for you.
Best For:
- Greater fat reduction
- Localized fat with skin laxity
- More comprehensive contouring
Key Benefits:
- Greater fat reduction when needed
- Tightens skin while improving body contours
- Creates smoother, more defined results

How Quantum RF Works
Quantum RF delivers controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin to address fat, contract tissue, and stimulate collagen, all in one treatment.
A thin cannula delivers energy directly to the targeted tissue while real-time temperature monitoring helps Dr. McKee precisely control treatment. As the area heals and collagen remodels, the skin gradually becomes firmer and contours become more defined.
Quantum RF is typically performed as a single treatment per area, with improvements continuing to develop over the following months.

Quantum RF Common Questions & Answers
What Areas Can Quantum RF Treat?
Quantum RF is commonly used to address areas of loose skin and localized fat on the abdomen, double chin, flanks, arms, and thighs. The areas appropriate for your treatment will be determined during your consultation with Dr. McKee.
How Many Quantum RF Treatments Will I Need?
Quantum RF is typically performed as a single treatment per area. Your individual treatment plan will depend on the area being treated, degree of skin laxity, amount of localized fat, and your desired outcome.
What Is the Downtime After Quantum RF?
Most patients experience mild swelling and bruising for approximately one to two weeks, with less recovery than traditional body-contouring surgery. Your individual recovery will depend on the area and extent of treatment.
Does Quantum RF Hurt?
Quantum RF is performed with local anesthesia. Most patients describe mild discomfort during the procedure and manageable soreness afterward.
When Will I See My Quantum RF Results?
Results develop gradually as the treated area heals and new collagen remodels. You may begin noticing changes as swelling resolves, with skin tightening and contour improvements continuing to develop over the following months.
Can Quantum RF Be Combined With Liposuction?
Yes. Quantum RF can be performed on its own or combined with traditional liposuction for appropriately selected patients. Liposuction is not automatically included; Dr. McKee will determine whether combining the treatments makes sense based on your anatomy and goals.
How Long Do Quantum RF Results Last?
Results come from tightened tissue and ongoing collagen remodeling and can be long-lasting, particularly when a stable weight is maintained. Natural aging and future weight changes can continue to affect the treated area over time.
Am I a Good Candidate for Quantum RF?
Quantum RF may be appropriate for patients with mild to moderate loose skin or localized fat who want to improve their contours without traditional surgery. It may also be considered for lingering laxity after weight loss or previous liposuction. Your candidacy will be determined during a personal consultation with Dr. McKee.
