I've had 2 Exilis treatments to my abdomen and have had a lot of burning. The PA performing the treatment said that it was normal. She would stop the device in one spot and it was extremely hot....causing me to actually lift the device for relieve. Is this normal?

Answer: Exilis treatment There can be a sensation of heat when having an Exilis treatment. This sensation should not be a burning sensation or uncomfortable..The way the heat is delivered and the speed at which the applicator is moved can be adjusted for the patient's comfort. You should let your practitioner know if it is uncomfortable. Stopping the device in one spot is poor technique and can result in a burn.

Answer: Exilis Heat Thank you for your question. Exilis treatments can become very warm and uncomfortable, however there should not be any burning or pain associated with it. Your provider should always be moving the hand-piece. If movement stops while energy is being released, it will cause a burn. The power on the device can also be turned down if the heat sensation is too intense. It is also very important to communicate with your provider during treatment so that you both are on the same page. I hope this was helpful.
