Exilis--weekly Treatments or Monthly for Effectiveness?

Thank you for your question.

Some patients experience more discomfort than others.  It depends on each individuals pain tolerance.  Make sure you stay hydrated with 64 oz of water a day.  This helps with results and can help with the discomfort. You may also ask your doctor for pain medication to take the edge off.

Yes, results can be seen after the first treatment but for some, not until after the 3rd or 4th treatment.

Best of luck.

Hi,

We have had the Exilis Elite since May of this year and have been very happy with the machine.  It is almost twice the energy of the older machine and half the number of treatments.  We recommend treatments every two weeks.  The treatments should not be painful.  Some areas may feel hot so you need to tell your clinician which areas are tender. There are various parameters on the new machine which can be adjusted so it is comfortable.  Body treatments generally are so comfortable that people fall asleep!

 

Best,

Dr. Liu

Exilis will help with skin tightening or fat reduction. Standard Exilis treatments in our office were done one to two weeks apart. We now have the new Exilis Elite machine with 80% more power. Thes treatments are not only more effective but safer and more comfortable because of the Intelligent Impedance Feedback. We do these treatments for skin tightening about three weeks apart. There are also only half the number of treatments needed. For fat reduction the treatments are still one to three weeks apart. We find that Exilis Elite is more comfortable on the face and arms for skin tightening but if you need fat reduction it may still be quite uncomfortable. Hydrate well and try taking some Advil or Motrim before the treatment (unless you ahve a reason not to take them). The pain is temporary but the results last a long time! Good luck.
