I visited Dr. Sandler and his team at Shared Wellness MD in April for a combination of treatments to help eliminate fat cells as well as rejuvenate the collagen production to help with my loose skin. The Cellutone process was what we started with, as it breaks up pockets of fat to make the Exilis Ultra and Vanquish ME work more effectively. The sound of the machine sounds like air pressure releasing as it massages your skin, which made me feel like I was getting a belly rub. The Exilis Ultra and Vanquish ME I could barely feel but both ended up warming up a little bit. I have seen significant changes in the texture of my skin since having these treatments. I’ve lost over 107 pounds in the last 2 years, so for me I did these treatments to see how effective they might be as an alternative to plastic surgery for the loose skin that I now have. The front of my belly used to have significant “cellulite” like dimples, and it’s now 90% smooth, same with the sides of my belly as well as lost inches in my bra fat area. I am returning in September for my second round of sessions and I CAN NOT WAIT! Thank you, Shared Wellness!!
There should be NO pain with a BTL Exilis Ultra treatment anywhere on the body. It should feel VERY warm, much like a hot shower or hot rock treatment. Your skin will likely have some redness following the treatment, but that should fade within an hour or two. Exilis Ultra uses Radio Frequency combined with Ultrasound to improve the elastin in the skin and increase collagen production to tighten the skin. Be sure you are being treated with the Exilis ULTRA, as previous versions of Excilis can be more uncomfortable and less effective. The neck and chin area is quite receptive to treatment. It should not be done directly on the jawbone, but very nice results can be had by working just above and below. Four to six treatments per area is recommended.
