Does Exilis work for under eye bags?

Question

Local vender is avertising for Exilis to rid of under eye bag. I was unable to find any article to confirm their claim.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Best,

Thanks
for your question – and we do not recommend that you have Exilis under the
eyes, as the hand piece for the Exilis is too large to be successful here. Whenever
you are considering these kinds of procedures, one should also consult with an
expert, a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who most of the time
will have multiple choices for you when you are asking for this kind of
treatment. We recommend that you consider the Venus Legacy, the EndyMed 3Deep,
the Ellman Pelleve, and the Alma Accent, as they all have hand pieces designed
specifically for the eye area. I hope this helps.

Exilis is not the best treatment for under eye bags because the tip of the device is too big. Pelleve may help and Neotensil helps temporarily smooth under eye bags.

Exilis works very well to tighten skin, but be cautious that you get an opinion fromsomeone that offers exilis and blepharoplasty so you get the pros and cons if both & look at their pictures!

Roy A. David, MD · Answer

Dear Lusong, thank you for your question. Exilis has won
numerous awards and is considered one of the best skin tightening devices on
the market. Exilis causes collagen remodeling and tightening. It is very
popular at our San Diego medical spa. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate
skin laxity, and no implantable metal devices in the treatment area or a pacemaker.
Consult with an Exilis physician who also performs eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)  to see if you are a good candidate. Good Luck!
