Toned, firm and smooth skin is something we all want to achieve, but as the ageing process progresses or after significant weight loss or childbirth, our skin can lose elasticity and firmness, leaving us with lines, wrinkles and sagging facial skin. At Ihya, our mission is to help you maintain the skin you deserve and are excited to offer a non-surgical, non-invasive, comfortable and safe device-led treatment that can treat the skin on all areas of the face and the body; so that you can achieve that youthful complexion, all-year-round.
This treatment is called BTL Exilis Ultra 360™.

This treatment is suitable for most skin types and can complement other facial cosmetic treatments such as dermal fillers and Botox®.
If you are noticing the very first or indeed, more significant signs of facial ageing and have no medical complications that may prevent or restrict the treatment, a BTL Exilis Ultra 360™ could be for you. However, we will conduct a pre-treatment consultation, prior to agreeing upon any procedure being undertaken, here at Ihya as part of our duty of care, as medical practitioners.
Once you have completed some standard consent forms, your skin will be cleansed and your Ihya practitioner will use the BTL device head for facial use, to pass over the surface of your skin. During this action, you may feel a slight warming sensation but this is normal and many patients comment that the sensation is rather like a hot stone massage and is quite pleasant.
Once all passes are completed, you can return to your daily activities with no need for recouperation time at home. You may experience a slight flushing of the skin and some warmth, but this will subside quickly.
We will offer you any aftercare advice to adhere to in the hours following your treatment.
The BTL EXILIS Ultra 360™ meets all the strictest global safety standards. The embedded energy flow control system of this device ensures that a suitable and correct amount of energy is emitted throughout the procedure and the unique cooling function ensures your comfort throughout. The safety and efficacy of this treatment has been tested thoroughly in many clinical studies.
BTL EXILIS Ultra 360™ requires no downtime (recovery time at home) and you can return to your daily activities immediately, following your treatment. There are no significant side-effects, apart from some possible flushing of the skin and a feeling of warmth. Your Ihya practitioner will offer some aftercare advice such as avoiding hot steam, saunas and baths for 24 to 48 hours, and can also advise on some at-home use skin products to complement the treatment.
You may be able to see some visible improvements in the tone and texture of your skin, following one single session of BTL Exilis Ultra 360™. However, it is usually recommended to undergo a series of treatments for the very best results. This will be discussed with you at your pre-treatment consultation with your Ihya practitioner.
This all depends on your skin type, age, lifestyle and environmental factors. If you maintain a healthy lifestyle and avoid excessive sun exposure, use good skincare and protect your skin from UV rays with a high-factor SPF, your results should last up to 12 months, before a maintenance session is required. You can speak with your Ihya practitioner about how you can maintain healthy skin between sessions, to optimise your results.
