Treatments / Exion

Exion

Smoother skin, softer lines and a natural skin/lip plump, by helping your body make more of its own hyaluronic acid.

How it works

Exion is one device with three treatments. Exion Face pairs radiofrequency with targeted ultrasound to boost hyaluronic acid, Fractional RF refines texture, and Exion Body smooths and firms skin on the body.

  • Three treatments in one device
  • Boosts your own hyaluronic acid
  • No downtime for Exion Face
  • Face, lips and body

The results

In a biopsy study, hyaluronic acid production was up 48.6% at 1 month and 67.7% at 3 months.1

  • 67.7%more natural hyaluronic acid in the skin at 3 months1
  • 48.6%more at 1 month1
  • 9.6%with standard radiofrequency alone, without Exion's ultrasound1

A small pilot study: 7 adults, four face treatments 7–14 days apart, with no adverse events.

Good to know

What does a session feel like?

Exion Face feels like a warm facial massage. Fractional RF goes deeper, so we numb the skin first.

Is it the same as filler?

No. Nothing is injected. Exion helps your skin make more of its own hyaluronic acid, so the plumping builds gradually.

Which Exion treatment is right for me?

It depends on what you'd like to target. Exion Face is for fine lines and plumpness, Fractional RF for texture and scarring. We'll pick together at your consult.

How many sessions will I need to start seeing results?

Everyone is different, but we recommend four Exion Face sessions, one to two weeks apart. In the study, your skin's own hyaluronic acid was up at one month and higher still at three.

Who shouldn't have it?

Not during pregnancy, or if you have a pacemaker or metal implants near the area. Irritated or sunburned skin means waiting a little. We'll check first.
