The Exilis by BTL Aesthetics is a new RF (radiofrequency) instrument available for wrinkle reduction and skin tightening as well as fat volume reduction and body contouring. The Exilis uses safe and sophisticated thermal energy to induce positive changes in the skin and body. A comfortable deep heating sensation is experienced with each short treatment session. Created by one of the foremost European manufacturers of state of the art medical therapeutic equipment used by physiotherapists for decades, the Exilis has been used in Europe for 4 years with great success and was FDA approved for use in the U.S. in 2009.
CRT SKIN (COLLAGEN REFILL TECHNOLOGY) REMODELING
- Collagen remodeling through a patented system of controlled energy delivery
- Dramatic improvement of skin density and dermal thickening based on neocollagenesis
- Homogenous and consistent energy distribution is non-chromophore (skin pigment) dependent and works with all skin types
EXILIS
For optimum results we always recommend 4 treatment sessions done at 1-2 week intervals. Patients experience results after the first treatment and continue to improve with each additional session. The treatment is often compared to hot stone therapy. Best of all there is no downtime for patients. For fat volume reduction and body contouring the results of each treatment are achieved within 5 days, and further fat volume loss occurs with each subsequent treatment. For skin tightening immediate tightening is seen. As this treatment promotes a rejuvenation of the collagen, which takes some time, it may take 3 months after the skin treatment finishes for the final results to be fully appreciated.
CONTROLLED ENERGY DELIVERY
- Synchronized pulse energy delivery enables precisely dosed superficial heating
- Dual energy pulse for ultimate effectiveness
- Only a fraction of energy is needed when compared to existing technologies
- No cooling necessary
- Fast and very comfortable treatment
Popular treatment areas are the abdomen, love handles, thighs, upper arms, face, neck and periorbital (around the eyes).
Many patients who are interested in improving their appearances choose Exilis treatments as a far more pleasant and less costly alternative to liposuction as well as skin tightening procedures such as face lifts, neck lifts or tummy tucks. Patients who have had these procedures or Botox done find that these treatments are a great tune-up for skin that is progressively losing its tone.
HOW CRT WORKS
- The collagen fibers triple-helix structure is affected by heat and this initiates the unraveling process
- The focused energy thermally disrupts collagen fibers
- The controlled thermal effect quickly and efficiently dissociates the collagen structure
- The natural healing process evokes fibroblasts to actively produce new collagen fibers
- Exilis results are based on using controlled RF energy to stimulate Collagen Remodeling
