Exilis Ultra explained

Exilis Ultra is a non-invasive skin tightening and contouring device made by BTL. It is used on the face, jawline, eyes, neck and body. It is the predecessor of BTL's newer Exion platform.

How Exilis Ultra works

Monopolar radiofrequency heats the dermis and fat while ultrasound energy is delivered at the same time. The device monitors energy and has cooling to keep the surface comfortable. The heat stimulates collagen for firmer skin and can reduce small fat deposits over several sessions.
