Exilis Therapy Reduces Fat and Contours the Body

Exilis therapy is a non-surgical treatment designed to rejuvenate skin and reduce localized areas of fat. As a minimally-invasive liposuction alternative for patients with moderate areas of fat buildup, Exilis therapy uses radiofrequency energy to heat underlying skin tissues and fat cells, ultimately helping to diminish signs of wrinkles and small, stubborn fat pockets on your body. This advanced procedure can tighten skin and reduce excess fat on your face, neck, stomach, hips, buttocks, thighs, and more. Additionally, there is typically no pain, scarring, or downtime associate with Exilis therapy.

Benefits of Exilis Therapy

Exilis therapy has a number of advantages over other surgical fat reducing and skin tightening procedures. Some key benefits of Exilis therapy include:

Reduces wrinkles
Improves skin tightness and elasticity
Provides effective body contouring by dissolving fat
Non-surgical, minimally-invasive method
Virtually painless treatment (no anesthetic required)
Generally no downtime after treatment
Treats all areas of the face and body

The Exilis Procedure

Exilis therapy can be performed without anesthesia, right in our office. During your procedure, Dr. Hertl or her certified and trained Exilis technician, will utilize radiofrequency energy to target wrinkles or fat cells with state-of-the-art technology. For wrinkle treatment, the radiofrequency waves heat the underlying layers of skin which effectively smooths the skin and stimulates new collagen growth for a more youthful appearance. For fat reduction, the radiofrequency waves heat the targeted area of fat in order to shrink and eliminate the fat cells to produce a more aesthetically-pleasing contour.

The entire treatment can be completed in about 30 to 60 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated. Typically 4 treatment sessions within four to six weeks are recommended. People over the age of 60 and those who had major weight loss will need more sessions. Following your procedure, you can expect minor redness and swelling, but you will typically be able to return to your normal daily activities immediately. Results will continue to improve over time and tend to be long-lasting.

Exilis Testimonial...

8.22.13

I have loved getting to know Dr. Hertl and her staff this summer of 2013.
We came up with a plan to use Exilis to reduce my abdomen and arms.
I needed to have a noninvasive treatment for my mommy body and
Exilis has been a great option for me.

The treatment allowed me to go into the office and then continue with my
usual busy days. It really has been so good to see a significant difference!
My dresses fit and fall around my waist great. The muffin top is under control
and I am once again wearing sleeveless shirts.

Thank you so much Dr. Hertl for helping me with my problem areas!
I am feeling confident and can once again smile at myself in the mirror.
