According to the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology*, the appearance of the face, neck and body are profoundly affected by the aging process. There is a decrease in tissue elasticity. This is coupled with the changes in volume and distribution of fat due to hormonal changes. These are further compounded by the effects of gravity and oxidative environmental factors.
This study evaluated the use of radiofrequency, (in particular the monopolar radiofrequency device developed by BTL, known as Exilis Ultra). This device is FDA cleared for the use in thermal stimulation to cause a micro-inflammatory stimulation of fibroblasts. This results in new collagen and elastin production, to enhance the dermal structure.
In the clinical observations, it was noted that improvements within one to three months of treatment, there were significant improvements in fine lines and wrinkles by 38%.
The benefits of Exilis:
