The goal of the procedure is to non-invasively tighten areas of the skin that have shown laxity, or wrinkling, smoothing out and presenting a tighter look. Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Amir Moradi, offers this procedure at Moradi MD in San Diego, CA. All treatments are performed in our office by our licensed Aestheticians, or board Certified Physician Assistants using the Exilis Ultra 360 technology, which is able to reach twice as deep as the previous technology.

Best Candidates

Those who have skin irregularities, such as wrinkles and laxity, and are looking for non-surgical cosmetic treatments may be good candidates for an RF skin rejuvenation treatment. Generally, it is a safe approach with no downtime and minimal risks. If the skin shows signs of laxity, it is understood that there is a significant loss of collagen or fat tissues which help keep the skin tight. RF rejuvenation helps reproduce these substances to bring back the skin’s youthful shape.

Patients who are looking to smooth and tighten skin in any of the following areas may wish to consider Exilis Ultra 360:

Face
Neck
Back
Abdomen
Arms
Legs

Procedure Process

RF skin rejuvenation uses controlled heat to target underlying skin tissues to help with collagen production. A provider will use the Exilis Ultra 360 machine, which generates the sound waves and guides it over the marked areas of the skin surface. This treatment is most effective with skin irregularities such as wrinkles and laxity on areas of the face, neck, tummy, arms, legs, and buttocks.

What To Expect

RF skin treatment sessions are not uncomfortable for the patient, it is more of a heating sensation. Some red or pinkness may appear on the treated area which will subside after a few hours. A treatment series of 4 is recommended and performed once every 2 to 3 weeks with maintenance treatments done once every 4 to 6 months. The positive effects can last for 2 years or longer.

Results

Most patients see some improvement in the tone and appearance of the skin after just a single treatment session. Still, Dr. Moradi generally recommends a minimum of four treatment sessions, and up to six, depending on the location and condition of the treatment area. The results may be long term since the treatment is not superficially limited and multiplies collagen.

The improved skin may last up to 2 years. It is important for the patient to understand before undergoing the procedure that this treatment does not stop the skin’s aging. There are cases in which an RF treatment is repeated when the patient or doctor deems it necessary.
