Exilis refers to a non-invasive procedure that is used in tissue tightening and reducing fat in notorious areas. The technology uses mono-polar radio frequency and infrared to reduce the fat. Today, people are more concerned with treating any unwanted fat and aging signs than anything else. Women, as well as men, are all in search of less invasive ways that will get rid of the lines on their faces and the fat in unwanted areas. As a result, there have been many inventions to assist in this procedure and Exilis is one of them.

Understanding Exilis

Exilis is an approved device by FDA and uses radio frequency to reduce fat and tighten tissues in the body. The device utilizes safe radio waves in heating targeted fat cells. The thermal energy emitted by the device is used to increase the metabolism rate around the targeted fat cells thus shrinking them. It is also used in the stimulation and strengthening of the collagen to enhance skin texture and improve laxity.

In these modern times, Exilis is among the best systems with a focus on circumferential reduction that actually works. The combination of cooling and RF energy is essential in treating areas where unwanted fat settles thus giving the patient a tight firm skin. The device is manufactured using high class technology and fitted with a function that shows the real-time temperature monitoring. When it is being used, the dermis is heated and since the thermometer shows the temperature levels, the patient remains comfortable.

The most common areas that are treated using Exilis are thighs, abdomen, arms, neck, jowls, lower face and buttocks. To the patient, Exilis can be likened to a warm massage that is soothing and comfortable. For this reason, there is no need for anesthesia during the procedure. The session is about 45 minutes and sometimes an hour depending on the area to be treated. The sessions are scheduled between 7 and 10 days apart with 4 to 6 sessions being the recommended number for great results. During the treatment, there can be some visible results but 3 months after the treatment will be the right time to see maximum results.

How it works

The technique incorporates Collagen Refill Technology (CRT) that heats the triple-helix structure of the collagen fiber, making the fiber unravel. By disrupting the collagen fiber, it becomes broken which stimulates the area to heal and replace the broken fiber with renewed stable collagen fibers.

After treatment, there is no downtime. Patients experience a short period of redness and sometimes swelling but this will not be a hindrance to handling normal activities. There is usually no pain associated with Exilis treatment. It is described by patients as a warm sensation like massage thus no need for anesthesia or numbing.

The results to be expected from an Exilis treatment include fat reduction, reduced wrinkles and a tighter skin. The excess fat from the body part will be reduced and the true body contours will be enhanced. After the treatment, patients are advice to resume light exercise regimen and drink lots of water. Exilis is safe and patients who are pregnant or use pacemakers can also be treated as there are no safety risks involve. In fact, radio frequency is considered to have less radiation when compared to cell phones.
