How the BTL EXILIS Ultra Works

The BTL EXILIS Ultra is the first and only non-invasive body sculpting modality that simultaneously uses ultrasound as well as radiofrequency energy to go through the skin layers to heal and constrict fatty tissue.

At the same time, it triggers the production of fresh collagen for firmer, thicker skin. A combination of these energy modalities allows the energy to penetrate the skin more rapidly compared to only a single modality.

The body absorbs the destructed fat cells and produces fresh collagen. This makes the skin in the treatment site tighter and reduces the overall thickness of the fat layer, leaving the patient with tauter, smoother, and more beautiful skin.

The BTL EXILIS Ultra incorporates a unique applicator to apply its cutting-edge technology to various body areas, including the fragile skin around the lips and eyes. Stemming from this, the med spa device comprises an advanced safety feature, called the Energy Flow Control system, within the applicator tip.

This cutting-edge system delivers powerful energy with precision to the appropriate skin depth, while ensuring that the epidermis remains cool to prevent any damage to the superficial skin layer. Consequently, this treatment provides safe, predictable, and very effective outcomes.

How much does Fractional Skin Resurfacing and Skin Tightening with the Pixel Laser Cost?

Skin Resurfacing and Tightening with Pixel Laser Cost | Beverly HillsPixel laser fractional skin resurfacing is a proven skin rejuvenation med spa procedure for people who seek to mitigate signs of aging, sun damage, and various other skin aberrations in a non-surgical manner.

At the time of the pre-treatment consultation, the provider will inform the patient on various facets of the procedure, including its estimated costs.

The main goal of a responsible treatment provider will be to enable the patient to make an informed choice. The patient should unhesitatingly ask the provider questions on the costs and other factors.

Pixel laser skin tightening is typically undertaken as an elective cosmetic treatment. This means that the patient will likely not receive insurance coverage for this procedure.

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Pixel Laser treatments to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

 

Cost Comparison

Pixel laser skin resurfacing treatment will be less expensive compared to a cosmetic surgery procedure such as a facelift. Surgical procedures typically involve costs such as the surgeon’s fee, general anesthesia, surgical venue costs, and pre and post-operative expenses.

Pixel laser skin tightening, on the other hand, is an outpatient treatment that can be undertaken in-office. For this reason, it does not involve the additional costs that are associated with cosmetic surgery.

Some patients may want to understand the cost comparison between Pixel laser skin resurfacing and other non-invasive options such as microdermabrasion, chemical peels, IPL skin rejuvenation, and soft tissue filler injections.

While some of these med spa procedures may be less expensive than pixel laser skin tightening, they may not create similar results. With these factors in mind, the patient should assess their budget, skin condition, and cosmetic goals prior to making a final decision.

 

Cost Variations

Pixel laser skin resurfacing procedures involve the use of different laser techniques and technologies. The choice is dependent on the depth of the skin aberrations that need to be treated.

The number of treatment sessions and treatment sites may vary between patients. The treatment costs for a patient who needs only two to three treatment sessions will be less than those for patients requiring five to six sessions to address their aesthetic needs and create desirable outcomes.

Another factor that will affect the cost of Pixel laser skin resurfacing treatment is the geographical location of the practice. Practices that are located in main urban centers and busy metropolitan cities typically have higher overhead and real estate costs compared to practices situated in small towns in interior regions.

The level of personalized care, quality standards, safety protocols, type of technology, and qualified support staff at the med spa chosen by the patient also affects the total costs of the procedure to a certain extent.

At the time of the pre-treatment consultation, the patient should openly ask questions related to the costs and make a well-considered decision after a thorough comparison of the costs and benefits with other treatment alternatives.

 

Financing

The patient should seek payment option information from the provider or their team beforehand. A majority of patients will be eligible for third-party financing by professional medical care financing companies at reasonable interest rates and convenient payment terms.

Motykie Medical Spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for Pixel Laser skin rejuvenation treatments.

Botox Can Help Give You Younger Looking Eyes

Botox Can Help Give You Younger Looking Eyes | Beverly Hills Botox injectables are an appropriate treatment for the reduction of facial signs of aging in a non-surgical manner.

This med spa procedure received approval from the FDA in 2002 for the cosmetic reduction of frown lines in the forehead area. After that, in 2013, Botox also received FDA approval for the cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet.

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Botox injections to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

 

Reduction of Eye Bags with Botox

The treatment of under eye bags or dark circles by injecting Botox is an off-label use in the US.

A study undertaken in 2003 aimed to understand whether Botox injected under and around the eyes could reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles in these areas. In this study, Botox injections were administered to 19 female participants.

Participants who received Botox injections in the lower lids and crow’s feet area were more likely to report positive results compared to those who only received this treatment in the lower eyelids.

These results indicate that Botox injectables can help the lower lid appear fuller and plumper. This helps reduce the wrinkle and under eye bags in the eye area.

 

Treating Crow’s Feet with Botox

Crow’s feet, or lateral canthal lines, refer to the fine lines and wrinkles that radiate from the outside corners of the eyes. These wrinkles may cause a tired appearance in the eye region making an individual appear older than their age.

The FDA has approved Botox for the cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet. This treatment is meant to create a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance around the eyes.

 

Botox Study for Crow’s Feet Reduction

Allergan Inc., the manufacturer of Botox, conducted in-depth research and extensive tests to showcase the efficiency of these injections in reducing the appearance of crow’s feet.

Due to this, the FDA approved Botox for the treatment of such lines. Allergen conducted an extensive study with more than 1,000 adult participants who were segregated into two groups.

One group consisting of 833 participants received Botox injections for their crow’s feet while the other group did not undergo any treatment. The group that received Botox treatment showed a major reduction in the appearance of crow’s feet in comparison to the group that did not receive any treatment.

 

Botox for the Treatment of Frown Lines

An individual may appear tired or angry due to the appearance on frown lines. Botox can reduce these lines effectively. The elimination of these lines between the brows can make a person appear more rested and approachable at social settings or the workplace.

Botox injectable med spa treatment relaxes the muscles of the face responsible for the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines as well as prevents these lines from becoming deeper. The procedure is typically completed in only around ten minutes.

Botox injections require significant skill where the most natural looking and effective outcomes are a result of injecting in the right muscles and the correct dose by a qualified provider.

 

How does Botox Work?

Botox comprises the neurotoxin called Botulinum, which obstructs communication between the nerve and muscle when injected into the underlying muscle in the appropriate dosage.

Botox is a non-surgical procedure where the provider uses fine needles to inject the medication directly into the overactive muscle that is responsible for the formation of the wrinkle. The chemical impedes communication between the nervous system and the muscle temporarily upon reaching the muscle.
