BEHAP WELLNESS / KNOW YOUR TREATMENT
Morpheus8, QuantumRF and RFAL (radiofrequency-assisted lipo-coagulation, including AccuTite, FaceTite and BodyTite) are part of the IgniteRF platform, but deliver energy into the skin and underlying tissue in different ways. Compare how they work, their instrument designs and aftercare before discussing a treatment plan with your doctor.

Device images from InMode · Platform options, not an individual treatment assessment
IgniteRF is a radiofrequency (RF) platform with several handpiece options. Morpheus8 delivers RF through fine needles, while QuantumRF and RFAL use an instrument inserted beneath the skin through a small incision. These different delivery methods involve different procedures and aftercare.
The guide below brings together handpieces and variants from manufacturer documentation, including QuantumRF 17 in the current product information, so you can understand the options before your consultation.
01 / EXPLORE THE HEADS
Choose a technology family, then select a handpiece to see its image, how it delivers energy and what to prepare for afterwards.
Morpheus8 delivers RF through fine needles. The tips differ in needle count and intended use. Burst and Burst Deep support energy delivery at multiple depths selected by the doctor.
RF microneedling
Skin texture and firmness
Burst has 24 needles and supports RF delivery at multiple depths, allowing the doctor to address skin texture and firmness together in the treated area.
What to plan for afterwardsNeedle marks, redness or dry skin, and resuming skincare according to your aftercare instructions.
Manufacturer handpiece informationRF microneedling
Targeted treatment areas
Prime is a 12-needle tip in the Morpheus8 Burst family. Its configuration differs from the 24-needle tip, so the doctor considers it in relation to the area being treated.
What to plan for afterwardsNeedle marks, redness or dry skin, and resuming skincare according to your aftercare instructions.
Manufacturer handpiece informationRF microneedling
Superficial skin treatment
Resurfacing has 24 needles, like Burst, but focuses on superficial skin. Choosing between them requires looking at tip type and energy delivery, not needle count alone.
What to plan for afterwardsNeedle marks, redness or dry skin, and resuming skincare according to your aftercare instructions.
Manufacturer handpiece informationRF microneedling
Body skin firmness
Burst Deep has 40 needles and a larger contact surface, designed to work across broader areas and at deeper tissue levels. The doctor determines the depth and energy settings.
What to plan for afterwardsNeedle marks, redness or dry skin, and resuming skincare according to your aftercare instructions.
Manufacturer handpiece informationThe doctor inserts an energy-delivery tube, called a cannula, through a small incision. Both electrodes sit beneath the skin and deliver RF in pulses. Different model sizes suit different working areas.
Pulsed subdermal RF
Small, delicate areas
The manufacturer’s slides describe QuantumRF 10 as having a 10 cm cannula for smaller areas. It delivers pulsed RF through two electrodes beneath the skin.
What to plan for afterwardsCare of the instrument entry incision, swelling or tightness, and whether the treated area requires a compression garment.
Manufacturer handpiece informationPulsed subdermal RF
Larger areas
The manufacturer presents QuantumRF 17 as an option for larger areas alongside model 25. It delivers pulsed RF through electrodes beneath the skin, like models 10 and 25. The doctor therefore considers the extent of the treatment area before selecting a handpiece.
What to plan for afterwardsCare of the instrument entry incision, swelling or tightness, and whether the treated area requires a compression garment.

Larger areas
The manufacturer’s slides describe QuantumRF 25 as having a 25 cm cannula for larger working areas. The doctor selects this size to suit the extent of the treatment area.
What to plan for afterwardsCare of the instrument entry incision, swelling or tightness, and whether the treated area requires a compression garment.
Manufacturer handpiece informationAccuTite, FaceTite and BodyTite deliver RF between an electrode beneath the skin and another resting on its surface. The system monitors temperatures at both locations. Turbo models have different instrument characteristics for different working requirements.
Internal + external electrodes
Small areas requiring precision
AccuTite is a small RFAL handpiece. The manufacturer’s slides specify a 6 cm cannula for areas requiring precision, paired with an electrode on the skin’s surface.
What to plan for afterwardsIncision care, swelling and bruising, plus additional aftercare if liposuction is performed alongside treatment.
Manufacturer handpiece informationInternal + external electrodes
Small areas
FaceTite is an RFAL handpiece for small areas. The model described in the manufacturer’s information has a cannula without built-in aspiration, so RF delivery is a separate step from liposuction in the treatment plan.

Larger body areas
BodyTite is an RFAL handpiece for larger areas. The manufacturer’s slides specify a 17 cm cannula that delivers energy between an internal electrode and an electrode on the skin’s surface in the selected area.
What to plan for afterwardsIncision care, swelling and bruising, plus additional aftercare if liposuction is performed alongside treatment.
Manufacturer handpiece informationInternal + external electrodes
Small, delicate areas
FaceTite Turbo has a more rigid cannula, designed to help the doctor control its path in small, delicate areas. Shaft rigidity is therefore another consideration when selecting a handpiece.

Larger body areas
The manufacturer’s slides describe BodyTite Turbo as having a rigid 25 cm cannula for larger working areas. This number describes instrument length, not the treatment depth required for every patient.

03 / PLAN THE RECOVERY
Select a group to see the example recovery periods provided by the manufacturer, then discuss the aftercare needed for your treatment area and procedure.
The slides give examples of mild redness or swelling for 1–3 days and small crusts for 3–5 days. Plan for care of needle marks, skincare and sun protection.
What to ask before treatmentWhen can you resume skincare and makeup, based on how your skin is healing?
Read about preparation and aftercareThe slides comparing models 10 and 25 give an example of swelling or tightness for 3–7 days. Wound care and compression-garment use depend on the treatment area and plan; they are not identical requirements for every handpiece.
What to ask before treatmentHow should you care for the incision, which activities should you avoid, and does the treated area need a compression garment?
Read about preparation and aftercareThe slides give swelling or bruising for 7–14 days as an example for the AccuTite / FaceTite / BodyTite Turbo group. Recovery may differ between patients and handpieces depending on the area, treatment extent and combined procedures.
What to ask before treatmentDoes the plan include liposuction, and how should you adjust your activities afterwards?
Read about preparation and aftercareThese example periods come from page 39 of the InMode comparison slides. They are not a recovery timetable for everyone or handpiece-specific data for every model. Actual recovery depends on the area, energy settings, combined procedures and aftercare. Information from InMode
04 / QUESTIONS THAT MATTER
No. Each group delivers energy differently and has a different scope of use. If your doctor recommends a combination, they should explain what each treatment addresses and how it affects cost and recovery.
Burst Deep delivers RF through needles from the skin’s surface. QuantumRF 25 uses a cannula inserted through a small incision, delivering energy from electrodes beneath the skin. The energy-delivery methods and aftercare requirements are therefore different.
No. Burst and Burst Resurfacing have the same needle count but different uses, with Resurfacing focusing on superficial skin. Needle count alone cannot determine which tip to use.
Not always. RF delivery and liposuction are separate parts of a treatment plan. The FaceTite model in the manufacturer’s information is described as having a cannula without built-in aspiration. Ask which steps are included in the proposed treatment.
Turbo describes engineering differences such as shaft rigidity, length or supported power. It does not establish better results for everyone. The doctor still needs to match the instrument to the area and procedure.
No. Cannula length is an instrument dimension. The doctor determines the working path and depth according to the treatment area and anatomy, so instrument length should not be interpreted as treatment depth.
