Portland, OR patients ask, “How many Exilis treatments are needed for results?”

Effective Exilis treatment from portland, or doctor

Dr. Adam Maddox of Thrive in Portland, OR believes in offering his patients a wide range of methods for aging beautifully, both inside and out. He is a naturopathic aesthetic medicine specialist who can help patients young and old with common body and health complaints. His facility offers some of the most advanced methods for treating concerns such as areas of unwanted body fat.

While many patients believe the only way to address body fat when diet and exercise fail is liposuction, other treatment options are available that are much less risky and invasive. Liposuction and other plastic surgeries are not the only way to achieve better body contours and improved self-confidence. Our practice offers a treatment known as Exilis, which allows patients to target fat deposits and enjoy a more aesthetic appearance.

Exilis is done with radio frequency energy, which heats and targets fat cells underneath the skin. The body flushes them out naturally over the course of time. This treatment does not affect the health and appearance of the skin during the process, thus providing an amazing method of treatment that surpasses the issues associated with traditional plastic surgeries and liposuction. Exilis can be used on virtually any part of the body, but is common suggested for areas such as the:

  • Abdomen
  • Love handles (flanks)
  • Thighs
  • Arms
  • Back
  • Chin and jowls

Dr. Adam Maddox is often asked by patients, how many Exilis treatments are needed to see optimum results? This is a difficult question to answer, as the treatment plan will vary from patient to patient. Most patients will see results after just the first session, while others may need more to obtain the results they truly desire. Patients must also understand that time is necessary to see the final look, so treatments should be spaced weeks, or even months, apart. Minor areas of fat deposits can be treated in two to three appointments while others may need upwards of six sessions. However, a consultation appointment with Dr. Adam Maddox can help in determining the most realistic expectations and the number of treatments needed.

miraDry® TREATMENT

FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING

Say goodbye to armpit hair and underarm sweating. Mirror Smooth (miraDry??) will save your day.

miraDry® TREATMENT FOR EXCESSIVE SWEATING

You shave it. You wax it, you laser it. Heck, you might even dye it pink. Talking about armpit hair. Now some people are saying you can microwave it away once and for all. We’re revealing a new treatment right now and our procedure room. Take it away, Doctor Ashton.

Hi guys So, I’m back here with doctor sheila Nazarian, board certified plastic surgeon and our patient Aaron. You’re going to be demonstrating this new microwave procedure to hit axillary hair, but before we get to that, tell, tell me why this hair bothered you, Aaron? Because I mean, you’re blonde, you wouldn’t mind.

I’m a personal trainer. I spend 95% of my day in a tank top in the gym or in a bikini and shaving every day is such a pain. No one likes to do it. I tried laser hair removal. It doesn’t work. If you have blonde hair and darker skin. So, I heard about mirror smooth So, thought I’d give it a try.

And you said it’s your game, okay, So, doctor Nazarian,

Yeah,

Go ahead and lie back Aaron. So, as you start working tell us a little bit about this technology. Who’s a good candidate for it and how? Does it work?

Well, the beauty of this technology is that everyone is a good candidate. Any skin colour, any hair colour? I’ve actually had the procedure performed on myself, didn’t get any hyperpigmentation from it.

So, you numbed Aaron up before we started, right?

Arron’s been numbed already. We’ve placed a temporary tattoo which basically gives us little tick marks. It’s really paint by numbers at that point and we use the microwave technology of mirror smooth to remove not only 70% of her hair with one treatment, but also the sweat and odour glands are also eliminated. So, it’s basically a little suction and some you know heat is applied, but because she’s numb there’s no pain.

You feel anything?
Fine, just a little pull,

Yeah.

And So, how many treatments typically does it take to really get a good effect?

So, 80% of people really only need one treatment. You’re going to get an 82% reduction in the sweat and odour glands and a 70% reduction in the hair growth. Which, if you’ve ever had laser hair, you know you need multiple treatments in order to get anywhere close to 70%.

So, what’s the cost range for something like this?

This that’s a great question. So, the first treatment is around 2000 dollars, but it’s, but if you think about how many laser hair removal treatments to do. I mean, it really is a great benefit and also laser hair doesn’t remove the sweat and odour glands.

Nice, well, 2000 dollars, meaning that you could throw away all your razors for the rest of your life.
Exactly

Right,

Never have to worry about sweating in your armpits again and being musty.

No more deodorant and think of all the money you spend on deodorant over a lifetime.

That’s true.

And it takes how long to do both pitch?

We usually schedule people for an hour at a time?
An hour!

So, can you imagine an hour and you’re done.
Oh my gosh,

Yeah,

Sign me up, scoot over.

Second string.

Amazing.

The one done idea is very appealing.

Exactly, yeah.

Thanks for sharing that with us and thanks for showing us your armpits,

Thanks for having me

You’re welcome.
