Dermatologist in New Orleans describes the Exilis skin tightening system

Dr. Mary Lupo is a board certified dermatologist at the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology and believes in providing patients in and around the area of New Orleans with cosmetic solutions that can improve appearance and self-confidence. She is especially proud to offer the Exilis skin tightening system for patients who are seeking methods of tightening the skin and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face.

Exilis is an FDA-cleared device that can provide administration of radio frequency energy deep into the skin. By heating the skin, this can stimulate the production of collagen—the element that helps patients maintain their youthful appearance. After the age of 30, patients begin to experience gradual loss of collagen and elastin in their skin, resulting in the development of skin laxity and formation of fine lines and wrinkles. By combating this loss with stimulation of more collagen, patients can turn back the hands of time and enjoy a more youthful look within a few weeks to several months.

Exilis is best for many patients because it provides a non-invasive alternative to plastic surgeries. Face lifts are appropriate in cases where patients have extensive skin laxity that results in the sagging of skin around the jowls. However, those with mild to moderate skin laxity are better suited for procedures such as Exilis.

Exilis is comfortable to undergo and may be done in several sessions for the best results. Patients rest in the treatment chair while Dr. Mary Lupo administers the radio frequency energy into the skin during an Exilis session. Patients do not need anesthetics or any other preparations because the procedure does not cause pain or discomfort.

Dr. Mary Lupo of the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology can provide patients with Exilis treatments in her state-of-the-art practice. She also offers many laser procedures, cosmetic injectables, and even chemical peels to improve the texture and tone of the skin. Booking an appointment with her is the best way to get started learning about all that can be done to turn back the hands of time and allow patients to enjoy a rejuvenated appearance without plastic surgery.
