Is Exilis Ultra 360 Worth It? Our Honest Thoughts

This non-invasive procedure promises to leave you looking refreshed and rejuvenated with zero downtime

New Year’s resolutions are hard to finalise, but they all have one thing in common: an element of self-betterment, be it a promise to implement (and stick with) a fitness regime; break bad habits or take time out to indulge in self-care. With Glow Up season in sight, many of us will spend our downtime throughout the holidays architecting the best versions of ourselves – and this includes researching the latest in aesthetic technology.

There’s certainly no shame in treating one’s self to a little tweakment (a bit of well-placed filler or Botox can work wonders for those seeking out a refreshed look) now that we’re officially well into the new year – and Aesthetics by King’s College Hospital London in Dubai boasts a variety of options for those of us ready to step into the best versions of ourselves in time for 2025, including non-invasive and preventative treatments. One option in particular, recommended by Dr. Dragana Spica, helps to combat the first signs of aging with zero downtime.

When asked about a preventive course of treatments to reduce aging in the nasolabial fold area – sans injectables – the leading Dubai-based plastic surgeon and aesthetics expert suggested the Exilis Ultra 360. The treatment, which involves the use of ultrasound and monopolar radiofrequency to stimulate collagen, is an excellent option for those looking to take a proactive approach in maintaining skin firmness, slowing and reducing signs of aging.

How does Exilis Ultra 360 work?

A trained aesthetics nurse or technician, like Wines Inovero Agairabas at Aesthetics by King’s, passes a device or wand across a particular area, which gradually heats up throughout the session (lasting between four to 10 minutes.) The Volumetric Heating of the Exilis Ultra 360 disrupts old collagen fibers, stimulating new growth deep in the tissue.

It’s typically recommended that most people undergo two to four treatments, seven to 10 days apart. Results can be visible after just one session and will continue to improve over the course of a few months with consistent use.

Is Exilis Ultra 360 painful?

While everyone’s tolerance and sensitivity to heat is different, the procedure has been described as painless – even relaxing for some – and can be likened to the same sensation as a hot stone massage. Patients have even been known to fall asleep whilst the Exilis Ultra 360 works its magic.

How much do Exilis Ultra 360 treatments cost?

It largely varies per patient and depends on the target area and how many sessions are needed for desired results.

So… is Exilis Ultra 360 worth it?

Overall, it’s an excellent option for individuals looking to take their skincare regime to the next level, but who don’t feel ready for injectables. Results are subtle at first, but natural with no downtime or post-treatment redness.
