About Exilis® RF Skin Tightening and Body Contouring
Our Exilis® is the award winning system for advanced body shaping and skin tightening. Exilis is the most powerful, non-invasive skin tightening and body contouring radiofrequency device. For the body application, the treatments reshape and shrink trouble areas of fat deposits and tighten loose, sagging skin! Patients feel a warming sensation as the handpiece is focused deeper into tissues and fatty layers causing fat destruction and the tightening of the collagen layers that other systems can’t reach. For facial skin tightening, a smaller hand piece is used to heat deeper collagen fibers resulting in tightened skin while improving tone and smoothing wrinkles.
In general, patients undergo four sessions for the desired result, but may have as many as eight sessions to achieve extra tightening or contouring of stubborn areas. Exilis is safe for most individuals.

How is Exilis RF Skin Tightening Performed?
When you arrive at About Face & Body Medical Spa for your procedure, we'll start by cleansing the necessary sites. We may provide a desensitizing ointment to soothe the skin throughout your procedure; however, many individuals agree that any mild pain is fast and tolerable. After preparing your skin, your technician will evenly run the Exilis instrument along your skin several times for comprehensive outcomes. This system boosts your body’s natural creation of elastin and collagen, making the skin supple and taut in time. Your procedure may last roughly 30 – 90 minutes, depending on the scope and size of the treatment area. When the RF procedure is over, you can expect to immediately get back to your normal routine.
What Results Can I Expect from RF Skin Tightening?
A member of our staff will give you tips on ways to help your skin heal after a skin tightening treatment. The number one rule is to not pick or peel your skin. Doing this can create lasting damage, including scars. You should skip all methods for hair removal in the treatment area, which includes waxing, shaving, or depilatory creams. In addition, you need to wear sun protection or use a hat while you're outside. We can prescribe a cream to help relax your skin.
Depending on your skin tightening needs, you may need to wait a few weeks or even a few months between treatments. You should talk to Michelle or another member of our staff about how often you want to come back for treatments so she can consider this when choosing a treatment plan during your consultation.
