Preparing for Exilis Ultra? And making sure it is for skin tightening only...

Thank you for your question in regards to Exilis. The larger hand piece that is used for the body has a setting specifically for tightening, which requires no cooling. To achieve desired results, a specific temperature needs to be reached and consistent throughout the procedure. With that being said, the more hydrated you are, the more comfortable and tolerable the procedure is. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Hello and thank you for your question. There are two handpieces to Exilis. The facial one is strictly skin tightening and the body one can be set for either fat melting or skin tightening. It is imperative that you are well hydrated for your treatment so that you can absorb the heat and remain comfortable. I would recommend a consult with an experienced provider. Have a great day!  Holly, RN

The settings on the machine will determine if skin tightening and or fat reduction will be done.  An experienced provider will be able to determine the settings and the correct hand piece to use in order to achieve your goals  We recommend that the patient be well hydrated as this will ensure that the targeted cells will be heated to the appropriate temperature.

The body hand piece should be used on the body, it has a larger area to heat and more power. When providing skin tightening only the large piece should have zero cooling and not be as long of a procedure as if you were performing fat reduction.The face HP has no cooling and less power, that's the major difference but I don't like it on the body because the surface area is less and I cant get a good estimation of the epidermal temp because it lacks the heat sensor the large HP has.
