Portland residents ask “Is a non-surgical skin tightening procedure safe?”

Do you have unwanted sagging skin? Through the natural aging process, the skin on the face and body loses its firmness and elasticity. It becomes loose leading to fine lines and wrinkles which can make individuals appear even older. Located in Portland, Dr. Adam Maddox and the team at Thrive offer Exilis for a non-surgical skin tightening procedure. This tissue tightening treatment provides patients with a safe, non-invasive option to treat lax skin while removing unwanted fat.
How Exilis works
Exilis transmits energy to heat the skin shrinking fat cells while contracting and tightening the skin. Collagen, which is a crucial building block of the skin, is stimulated as well. Using radiofrequency energy, skin on the face and body is contoured and tightened. The entire procedure is safe, efficient, and comfortable for the patient. An Energy Flow Control system is utilized to keep the patient comfortable throughout the process while also maintaining uniform energy pulses for an effective treatment. Skin tightening and body contouring procedures are fast and effective. Skin on the face, chest, buttocks, legs, arms, abdomen, hands, and knees can be treated.
