Mini-Sculpt™ — Precision Quantum RF Tightening in Vancouver
Physician-Performed • Targeted Small-Area Sculpting • Minimal Downtime
Mini-Sculpt™ is the newest generation of Quantum RF skin tightening — engineered to lift, tighten, and sculpt small, difficult-to-treat areas with precision and control not found in larger-area RF treatments. Performed in-clinic by a physician, Mini-Sculpt™ delivers remarkable contouring results with minimal downtime.
This new device is brought to us by InMode, a leader in radiofrequency technology, known for industry-leading treatments such as Morpheus8, Accutite, Facetite, and Bodytite. Quantum RF by InMode is an advancement in body contouring that lifts, tightens, and contours skin without surgery.
What Is Mini-Sculpt™?
Mini-Sculpt™ is a targeted Quantum RF procedure that uses advanced radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen contraction and remodeling in specific small zones prone to skin laxity. Unlike broader-area RF treatments, Mini-Sculpt™ is optimized for precision tightening in areas where detailed contouring matters most.
This innovative procedure continues the legacy of Quantum RF technology — a leading non-surgical option for tightening and lift — now tailored for refined sculpting and enhanced definition.
How Quantum RF Fits Into Body Sculpting
When patients think about body sculpting, most people assume it’s only about fat removal. In reality, great body contouring is about three things:
- Fat reduction
- Skin tightening
- Overall shape and tone
Different technologies target different layers of the body—and this is where Quantum RF plays a very important role.
Fat Reduction vs. Skin Tightening
- Fat-focused treatments (like CoolSculpting or liposuction) are designed to reduce pockets of fat.
- These treatments do not tighten skin
- In some cases, removing fat can actually make loose skin more noticeable.
- Skin-tightening treatments, like Quantum RF, focus on the quality, firmness, and elasticity of the skin
Quantum RF does not remove fat—instead, it tightens and strengthens the skin by stimulating your body’s own collagen and elastin.
Areas Commonly Treated with Mini-Sculpt™
Mini-Sculpt™ is ideal for areas where precision is key and traditional treatments often underperform:
Face & Neck
- Jawline & jowls
- Submental (double chin)
- Neck skin laxity
Body
- Bra bulge & underarm folds
- Inner arms
- Abdomen
- Knees
- Inner Thighs
- Small post-weight-loss laxity areas
Quantum RF, in its broader application, can also tighten other body areas (upper arms, back, abdomen, knees), but Mini-Sculpt™ specifically targets small zone contouring with enhanced precision.
Targeting the Neck, Jawline, and Jowls
The neck, jawline, and jowl area are among the most common concerns for both men and women experiencing skin laxity and loss of definition. As we age, collagen depletion and changes in underlying support structures can cause this region to appear heavier, softer, or less contoured over time.
Patients frequently express dissatisfaction with:
- Blurring of the jawline
- Early or established jowls
- Sagging or crepey neck skin
- Loss of a sharp transition between the face and neck
Because this area plays a central role in overall facial balance, even subtle laxity can significantly affect how youthful or refreshed the face appears.
Mini-Sculpt™ with Quantum RF is specifically designed to address these concerns by delivering precise, controlled tightening to the lower face and neck. When combined with Morpheus8 Burst, this layered approach improves both skin quality and structural support, helping restore definition while maintaining natural facial movement and expression.
This targeted, physician-directed treatment is ideal for patients seeking jawline refinement and jowl tightening without surgery, minimal downtime, and results that evolve gradually and naturally.
How Mini-Sculpt™ Works
Mini-Sculpt™ harnesses the same foundational benefits of Quantum RF — controlled thermal energy delivery, physician-directed planning, and collagen stimulation — but with enhanced focus for small, delicate areas. Results appear gradually over time as collagen rebuilds, typically continuing up to six months post-treatment.
Mini-Sculpt™ Advantages
- Physician performed in-clinic procedure
- Powerful tightening for targeted zones
- Improved contour + definition
- Minimal social downtime
- Safe for all skin types
- Natural-looking results that evolve over time.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Mini-Sculpt™ is perfect for individuals who:
- Have mild-to-moderate skin laxity
- Want targeted tightening without surgery
- Prefer refined contouring in delicate zones
- Seek natural, gradual results
A full consultation with one of our physicians will confirm suitability and help tailor your treatment plan.
Quantum RF + Morpheus8 Burst: Enhanced Results
For patients seeking maximal tightening, texture improvement, and long-term collagen stimulation, Shine MD may recommend a layered treatment approach combining Morpheus8 Burst with Quantum RF (Mini-Sculpt™).
This protocol is designed to address multiple skin depths in a single treatment plan — adding benefit and enhancing results.
Why Combine Morpheus8 Burst and Quantum RF?
Quantum RF (Mini-Sculpt™)
- Delivers deep, controlled thermal energy.
- Targets deeper structural tissue layers.
- Produces meaningful skin contraction and tightening.
- Particularly effective for small, hard-to-treat areas.
Morpheus8 Burst
- Microneedling radiofrequency technology
- Targets the superficial to mid-dermis
- Improves skin texture, fine lines, pores, and early laxity
- Creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger collagen renewal.
When layered together, these treatments create a more complete collagen response from the surface down to deeper support structures.

Initial improvements may be visible once swelling reduces and fluid is reabsorbed, usually within a few days. However, the most significant results develop gradually over 3 to 6 months, as the body continues to remodel collagen and elastin.
Quantum RF is performed by Dr. Khurana, who has extensive experience using AccuTite and related technologies. Here’s what to expect:
- Pre-treatment medications such as lorazepam (Ativan) and nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) are provided for comfort and relaxation.
- Local anesthesia (lidocaine) is injected into the treatment area.
- A small cannula is inserted to deliver RF energy beneath the skin.
- The procedure is typically well-tolerated, and patients remain comfortable and relaxed throughout.
- Procedure time is approximately 60 minutes, including patient preparation and delivery of anaesthesia
- If taking Ativan, plan to have someone drive you home.
Downtime varies by patient and treatment intensity, but here’s what you should expect:
- Social downtime: Allow for at least one week, especially if you’re sensitive to visible swelling or bruising.
- Swelling and bruising: Common, especially in areas with significant fluid infiltration (like the submental/chin area).
- Compression garment: Ideal for chin treatments—full-time for 2 days whenever possible, then nightly for 2 additional weeks. This will be provided.
- Post-treatment care: Avoid exercise for at least 5 days.
- Skin changes: Expect redness for 1–2 days and possibly some lingering swelling or bruising if combined with Morpheus8 Burst
These effects generally begin to resolve within a few days, though minor swelling and/or bruising may persist for a few weeks in some cases.
Quantum RF offers surgical-like benefits with minimal downtime, making it a great option for those who:
- Want to avoid surgery
- Are not ready for a facelift
- Have mild to moderate skin laxity
- Prefer gradual, natural-looking results
However, it’s important to understand that Quantum RF is not a replacement for plastic surgery. The results may be more subtle than a facelift or neck lift. Some patients choose to try Quantum RF first and may opt for surgery later if needed.
Candidacy for plastic surgery must be determined with a thorough consultation with a qualified physician or plastic surgeon.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
With good skin care, stable weight, and a healthy lifestyle, many patients enjoy visible improvements beyond 24 months. Some maintenance treatments can extend longevity.
The treatment itself is not painful because the treatment area is injected with lidocaine. The injection of numbing can often create a warmth underneath your skin during the time of injection and settles quickly. During this time, you may use laughing gas to decrease the sensation and alleviate any anxiety you may be feeling.
A single Quantum RF treatment yields satisfying results. Two follow up sessions of Morpheus 8 are recommended one month apart following your initial Quantum RF session.
Minimal. You might have mild redness, swelling, or warmth for a few hours to a day. Most people return to their normal activities within one to two days. You will have areas of healing where the Quantum RF was inserted under your skin. These small incisions will be closed with skin adhesive (skin glue) and will heal within five to seven days.
As with any medical/aesthetic procedure, there are possible side effects: temporary redness, swelling, and mild tenderness. The incision and entry sites will heal over the following week and require basic wound care. Rarely, there may be bruising or more long-lasting discomfort. Infections can occur but are very rare. Preexisting skin conditions or health issues can increase risk. In general, Quantum RF is considered safe when performed by an experienced practitioner. Close follow up and post care support is offered to manage any concerns you have after the treatment.
Quantum RF may not be suitable for the following patients.
- Very loose skin that would require surgical treatment
- Cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator.
- Cochlear implants.
- Permanent implants in the area such as metal plates and screws, silicone implants.
- Current skin cancer in the area to be treated.
- Impaired immune system or on immunosuppressive medications.
- Poorly controlled diabetes or thyroid dysfunction.
- History of skin disorders, keloids or abnormal wound healing.
- History of bleeding coagulopathies.
- Any history of surgical procedure in the area in the last three months.
- If you are pregnant or nursing.
Yes. Quantum RF is most often combined with Morpheus8 Burst. Other skin treatments and lasers can improve skin pigmentation, redness and fine lines and wrinkles.
