MiniFX by InMode is a non-invasive facial contouring treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with controlled suction and tissue heating.
The technology is designed to target small areas of localised fat while supporting improvements in the appearance of skin firmness.
1. Radiofrequency Energy – Targeted Tissue Heating
MiniFX delivers radiofrequency energy into the treated tissue, creating a controlled heating effect. This energy is designed to heat the subcutaneous fat layer, which is the layer of fat located directly beneath the skin. Sufficient thermal exposure may trigger changes in targeted fat cells, contributing to a gradual reduction in localised fat thickness. The amount of improvement depends on the individual’s anatomy, treatment settings and response.
2. Controlled Suction – Targeting Smaller Areas
MiniFX uses suction to draw the targeted tissue into the applicator. This helps position the tissue for controlled energy delivery and allows the practitioner to treat smaller, more defined areas. The suction component may also contribute to temporary redness, swelling or bruising following treatment.
3. Temperature Monitoring – Controlled Energy Delivery
MiniFX incorporates temperature monitoring and controlled energy cut-off technology. These features help regulate the delivery of radiofrequency energy during treatment. However, temperature monitoring does not eliminate all risks associated with thermal treatments.
4. Gradual Facial Contouring
As the treated tissue responds to radiofrequency heating, some individuals may notice improvements in the appearance of lower facial contours. Changes associated with fat reduction develop gradually rather than immediately. MiniFX may also support some improvement in skin firmness, although significant skin tightening is not its primary purpose.
For individuals with both localised facial fat and mild skin laxity, MiniFX may be combined with Forma radiofrequency skin tightening as part of a personalised treatment plan.
