Interventions
After subjects meet the eligibility criteria, they will be randomized with a 1:1 ratio to one of two treatment groups: Active or Sham. Subjects will receive two active or sham treatments, one month apart, with the InMode RF Pro System with the Morpheus8 Applicator and 24 pins tip and will return for three follow up visits: 4 weeks 12 weeks and 24 weeks post the second treatment
