The Exilis Elite is a device certified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the reduction of wrinkles and contouring in a single machine. The Exilis Elite is an evolution from the original Exilis version, offering greater energy and clearer results after treatment. It has been found to double the treatment results and reduce the number of treatments needed.
The working principle of EXILIS ELITE
The Exilis Elite uses high-frequency Continuous Monopolar Radio Frequency (RF) and Continuous Ultrasound waves, delivering thermal energy around 40 – 42 Celsius degrees to depths of up to 205 centimeters, deeper than previous Monopolar RF generations. The thermal energy induces the natural death (Apoptosis) of fat cells, which are then permanently removed. Additionally, the heat stimulates new collagen production, leading to better-organized collagen molecules, smoother skin, and reduced minor wrinkles. The device continuously monitors and adjusts the temperature to ensure it is appropriate for the treatment, lasting about 20 – 30 minutes.
EXILIS ELITE and skin
The Exilis Elite can help reduce wrinkles and fine lines on the face, around the eyes, neck, and décolleté. It also helps lift and tighten the face, dissolve excess fat in various locations including underarms, arms, back of hands, abdomen, hips, buttocks, and thighs, and reshapes the entire body. Suitable for women, postpartum women, or men who exercise but do not see clear six-pack abs.
The treatment lasts about 20 – 30 minutes, is painless, does not require wound care or downtime. For the best results, continuous treatment is recommended. Fat on the abdomen, waist, torso, arms, and legs should be treated at least 4 times, each session spaced 7 – 10 days apart. Results gradually improve and become visibly clear after the final treatment around 2 months later. For the face and neck, only 2 sessions are required, spaced 7 – 10 days apart, with clear results approximately 3 months after the last session. Post-treatment, there may be temporary redness that disappears within 1 – 2 hours. The skin might become dry due to the heat, so moisturizing cream should be applied.
