About Exilis
At SSA, we understand that maintaining a youthful appearance is important to our patients. As we age, our bodies undergo changes that can affect our self-confidence, including the accumulation of stubborn fat and loss of skin elasticity. Exilis is an effective non-invasive treatment that combines fat reduction and skin tightening using advanced radiofrequency technology.
What is Radiofrequency?
Radiofrequency (RF) energy, in simple terms, involves the use of heat energy to stimulate the body’s natural healing response and promote desired changes in the targeted area. During an Exilis treatment, a specialized device is used to deliver controlled RF energy to the skin. This energy penetrates deep into the tissue, gently heating the underlying layers without causing harm to the surface of the skin. (1) This controlled heating stimulates collagen production, a vital protein responsible for maintaining the skin’s elasticity and firmness.
Skin Tightening
Collagen plays a crucial role in keeping our skin youthful and supple. However, as we age, collagen production naturally declines, leading to sagging skin and the formation of wrinkles. By harnessing the power of radiofrequency, Exilis treatment encourages the body to produce new collagen, resulting in a noticeable improvement in skin tightness and overall texture. (2)
Fat Reduction
But that’s not all. The heat generated by radiofrequency in Exilis treatment also has another remarkable effect – it can help reduce unwanted pockets of fat and improve the appearance of cellulite. The controlled heat energy targets fat cells, disrupting their structure and initiating a process called lipolysis. Lipolysis leads to the breakdown of fat cells, allowing the body to naturally eliminate them over time.
No Surgery Required
One of the key benefits of Exilis is its ability to provide body contouring and anti-aging effects without the need for surgery or downtime. The treatment is quick, painless, and requires no anesthesia. Patients can comfortably relax during their session as the device gently heats the targeted area, causing fat cells to shrink and collagen fibers to contract. Over time, this stimulates the production of new collagen, leading to smoother, tighter, and more youthful-looking skin.
Exilis can be used to address various concerns across different areas of the body. Whether you’re looking to eliminate love handles, reduce cellulite, sculpt your abdomen, tighten your neck, or rejuvenate your face, this versatile treatment can help you achieve your desired results. Our highly skilled and experienced team at SSA will customize each session to meet your unique needs and goals, ensuring optimal outcomes.
Candidates
It’s important to note that Exilis is not a weight-loss solution but rather a targeted approach to contouring and refining specific areas. Exilis is not a good fit for patients with pacemakers or internal electronic devices, and patients who are pregnant or lactating. Ideal candidates are individuals who are close to their ideal weight and have good overall skin quality. During a consultation with our experts, we will assess your candidacy and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific concerns and expectations.
Personal Consultation
During your personal consultation, one of our experienced medical professionals will carefully evaluate your skin condition, considering factors such as skin laxity, texture, and overall health. This assessment will help us determine if Exilis is the most suitable option for achieving your desired outcome.
It’s important to note that Exilis treatment may not be appropriate for everyone. However, our dedicated team will guide you through all available options and recommend the best course of action based on your specific concerns and expectations. In some cases, combining Exilis with other treatments or procedures, such as dermal fillers or EON body contouring, may offer more comprehensive rejuvenation results.

The Exilis Procedure
We will ensure you are ready for treatment by providing a comprehensive set of preparatory guidelines. On the day of your procedure, we will calibrate the Exilis device to your specific requirements using the built-in power settings. The handpiece comes complete with a skin temperature guide, safety meter, and a timer to show how long the device has been on a target area, to ensure individualized effectiveness.
Exilis works by delivering targeted thermal energy deep into the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin fibers. This not only tightens loose skin but also improves the overall texture and tone of the treated area. The radiofrequency waves safely heat the underlying layers of tissue, causing fat cells to shrink and be naturally eliminated by the body over time.
Recovery
The recovery process for Exilis fat reduction and skin tightening is minimal, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately. There may be some skin reddening in the initial hours after your treatment session, but this will subside quickly. In rare cases, swelling, scabbing, and pigmentation changes may occur in the treatment area which will subside just a few days post-treatment.
Results
The results of Exilis are long-lasting, with many patients experiencing noticeable improvements even after a single session. However, a series of treatments may be recommended to achieve the optimal outcome. The longevity of your results will depend on various factors, including your lifestyle choices and skincare regimen. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, can help prolong the benefits of Exilis.

Renuvion, also known as J-Plasma, is a minimally invasive technique that offers remarkable skin tightening and tissue coagulation results. Using the power of helium plasma, it delivers controlled subdermal heating to the targeted areas of the body. This unique approach stimulates the fibroblasts within the skin, which are responsible for producing collagen. By stimulating collagen production, Renuvion promotes the remodeling of existing collagen fibers, leading to tighter and more youthful-looking skin.
EON Body Contouring
EON Body Contouring is an advanced and innovative non-invasive fat reduction treatment. For individuals who struggle with localized pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, EON offers a solution without the need for surgery.
