Exilis Elite

The Exilis Elite is used to treat everything from superficial, fine lines to deep wrinkles on the face and neck, as well as fat pockets on the body. Skin becomes smoother and lines are reduced, while the body is  reshaped and recontoured.

It is suitable for those with stubborn, mild to moderate fat deposits, and can postpone or even eliminate the need for more invasive treatments, like liposuction, in the future. These results are long-lasting provided that you continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Maintenance sessions can be done if needed

Exilis Elite is commonly used to treat love handles, bingo wings (flabby arms), saddle bags on hips and thighs, post-baby tummies, turkey necks and jowling in the face.

How long does it last?

Maintaining your weight and keeping a healthy lifestyle will enable you keep your fantastic new look. Aging (sun exposure etc) will degrade your skin quality, weight gain will trigger the body to product new fat cells.

The longevity of the results will depend on your genetic predisposition to ageing and your lifestyle. You may need top-up treatments to maintain the results.

Side effects & risks

Side effects are generally minimal. You may notice some pinkness or redness to the skin immediately following the treatment, but this typically subsides within 15-30 minutes. Skin may be slightly tender to the touch for a little time afterwards, but this is not always the case.

Not to be used in

Pregnancy, active skin lesions, lupus, auto-immune, patients with a pacemaker, or metal implant directly under the area to be treated.

Treatment regime

6 – 10 session depending on the patient response.

Twice a week (once a week also possible)

The time taken for a treatment session will depend upon the size of the area and indication being treated, for example a small area on the face and neck could take around 20 minutes, whilst a large area on the thighs and saddle bags could take up to 60 minutes.

Results are usually seen from the third session but skin will continue to improve for up to six months. Maintenance treatment may be required.

How does it work?

The Exilis Elite uses a combination of radio frequency energy, ultrasound and skin cooling to deliver controlled heating to target the desired outcome

The aim of treatment is to raise the temperature at the skin surface to 40-42°C for 4 or 5 minutes in each area treated to achieve the collagen tightening. This will be felt as a warming sensation by the patient.

Should be used by

The Exilis Elite should only be used trained medical professionals or aestheticians under medical supervision, as is the case with Plump Cherry.

Cost of treatment: The cost of treatment depends on the area(s) being treated and the indication. Start from R800 per 20min session
