Better Buy: Intuitive Surgical or InMode?

Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) InMode (NASDAQ: INMD) are both technology-intensive companies that are aggressive disruptors in their respective healthcare markets, and the similarities don't end there. Whereas Intuitive Surgical makes da Vinci surgical robots used by general surgeons in hospitals, InMode produces advanced beauty treatment equipment that fills a similar role to both laser skin treatments and plastic surgeries. While Intuitive is a behemoth worth $126 billion, InMode's market cap is only $7 billion -- but both businesses have plenty of room to grow.

Will Intuitive's rock solid and highly recurring revenue model make it a better investment, or do InMode's novel products and its comparatively small size make it a more attractive pick for growth? Let's examine a couple of the arguments for each.
