Exilis
Exilis is a non-invasive, advanced face and body contouring procedure that is highly effective in tightening-up loose skin to reduce wrinkles and is also used to target and reduce fat cells.
What is RADIOFREQUENCY COLLAGEN INDUCTION (EXILIS)?
Probably one of the most advanced treatments to reduce wrinkles, target fat cells and lift sagging skin, Exilis Elite â„¢ shrinks loose tissue while stimulating the long-term production of collagen and elastin fibres to lift and tighten the skin. Making use of monopolar radiofrequency (RF) this system warm up tissue to therapeutic temperatures. Its built-in temperature sensors ensures the streaming of optimal heat without causing excess pain.
Â
Clinically proven, the Exilis Elite â„¢ is also highly effective in body contouring. In targeted areas the fat module setting helps to separate and break-down fat clusters, allowing your body to dispose them in a natural way. It’s one of the most innovative systems on the market and even though immediate results will be visible, it becomes more visible after 2-3 months and promises to give you the lift and/or contouring you want after approximately five sessions.Â

CONDITIONS
As we grow older, collagen production slows down. Our skin gradually becomes thinner, it loses its underlying fat and with this loss in volume it starts to sag.
The skin around the eyes are thin and has fewer oil glands, making them more prone to dryness and the formation of wrinkles. Also known as ‘crow’s feet’, these are usually the first showing signs of aging.
Our brows start to drop with age as muscles around the eye lose tone and elasticity, resulting in a tired and droopy look.
Tiny muscles and tissues weaken around the eye area, the fatty deposits that normally support the eyes starts to move down into the lower eyelids, causing a puffy look or bags. This can also be a genetic condition.
Repetitive frowning due to squinting can cause the forming of lines on the forehead and between the brows, also known as number 11 lines. Not only do these make us appear older, but they also result in an angry and serious appearance.
Smoking exposes the skin to toxins and breaks down existing collagen. This leads to the loss of the skin’s elasticity and consequent fine lines, wrinkles and sagging. Smoker’s lines are generally around the lips and eye area.
A distinct wrinkle line starts to form from the bottom of the nose to the corners of the mouth as we grow older. Caused by sun damage, smoking, and general aging, the severity of these lines can vary from one patient to another.
More probable in older or overweight people, a double chin is a condition where the subcutaneous fat around the neck creates a second or double chin.
The main reason one would get wrinkles, is due to these proteins breaking down or production of these proteins slowing down, resulting in visible fine lines in the décolleté region.
Enlarged pores are due to the excessive production of sebum, which leads to oily skin. Even though this is a natural phenomenon, it can cause acne that could negatively impact affect teens, young adults and in some cases people in their middle age.Â
Our skin starts to struggle to keep its moisture as we age which causes tight skin with a dull skin tone. Dry skin tends to be more sensitive and can be aggravated by factors like extreme weather and air-conditioning. Early treatment will reduce the patient’s chances to fast aging skin, eczema and other skin conditions.Â
EXILIS - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The Exilis has two different settings, one for skin tightening and another for fat reduction. This allows the therapist to target fat and treat sagging skin in each session.
It’s extremely safe. With a built-in heat sensor and cooling tip, the Exilis ensures heating only happens on a clinical level before cooling down the skin.
Most patients see immediate results, but the true effect of new collagen is only visible within 2-3 months. The effects of Exilis treatment last up to 2 years on sagging skin, if patients follow a healthy lifestyle and diet.
Not at all and some patients compare the heating sensation they experience to a hot stone massage.
Like most treatments, this depends on the individual’s concerns and conditions. A complimentary consultation with our aestheticians will provide more clarity, but most patients require 4 – 6 treatments for optimum results.
The skin appears a little red after Radiofrequency collagen induction therapy, but there’s absolutely no down-time.Â
