Ageing happens gradually – until one day you notice that the skin around your jawline and neck isn’t as firm as it once was.
Suppose you’ve been searching for a non-surgical way to lift, smooth and tighten. In that case, BTL Exilis™ face and neck tightening offers an advanced solution that blends radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound (US) energy to gently remodel collagen and restore definition – without needles or downtime.
At Dr Ana – The Skin Clinic, we utilise the BTL Exilis Ultra 360™, an award-winning device that safely tightens skin, improves elasticity, and sculpts contours with visible, lasting results.
What Is BTL Exilis™ and How Does It Work?
The science behind radiofrequency and ultrasound synergy
BTL Exilis™ combines radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound (US) technologies to deliver controlled heat deep into the dermis while protecting the skin surface. This dual-energy method stimulates collagen and elastin fibres, triggering a natural healing response that lifts, tightens, and refines. As the skin warms, fibroblast cells become active, producing new collagen that smooths lines and restores firmness over time. You’ll notice a gradual yet visible improvement in tone, texture, and tightness across the face and neck.
Why Choose Exilis™ for Face and Neck Tightening?
BTL Exilis™ is ideal for anyone seeking natural-looking rejuvenation without surgery or injectables.
Key benefits include:
- Noticeable lift and firmness with zero downtime
- Comfortable, pain-free procedure (often described as a warm massage)
- Safe for all skin types and tones
- Targets delicate areas such as the under-eyes and neck
- Results that continue to improve with ongoing collagen renewal
At Dr Ana – The Skin Clinic, we’ve curated bespoke combination protocols to maximise every result. One of our favourites, HydraTite, combines a bespoke hydrating facial with Exilis™ to enhance energy penetration and improve overall rejuvenation.

BTL Exilis™ vs Other Skin Tightening Treatments
When compared with other non-surgical skin tightening treatments, Exilis™ stands out for its comfort, safety, and precise energy control.
Exilis™ vs Morpheus8 or Secret RF
While Morpheus8 or Secret RF uses microneedling with RF to create micro-injuries that trigger collagen production, Exilis™ achieves tightening non-invasively through heat diffusion, making it ideal for those wanting no downtime or skin puncture.
Exilis™ vs HIFU (Ultherapy® alternative)
HIFU targets deeper layers of skin and can sometimes cause temporary discomfort or swelling. Exilis™, by contrast, uses a blend of RF and US at gentler temperatures, providing consistent tightening that feels soothing yet effective.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
BTL Exilis™ is versatile, suitable for treating multiple areas, including:
- Full face (forehead, cheeks, crow’s feet)
- Lower face and jawline
- Chin and under-chin
- Neck and décolletage
Each treatment delivers precision-targeted heat, strengthening the skin’s support structure and enhancing definition.
What to Expect During Treatment
During your session, a handheld applicator glides over the skin while delivering focused energy. The device continuously monitors temperature for safety and optimal effect. Treatments typically last 30-60 minutes, depending on the area. There’s no anaesthetic, no needles, and no downtime – you can return to your day immediately.
Results, Downtime & Aftercare
When you’ll see results
Most patients notice subtle lift and smoothing after the first session, with optimal results after a full course. Collagen remodelling continues for months after your final treatment.
Treatment schedule
A typical course involves 4-6 sessions spaced 7-10 days apart, with each one building on the last to enhance collagen stimulation and tightening.
For ongoing improvement, we recommend one session per month for long-term maintenance.
Aftercare tips:
- Stay well hydrated to support collagen renewal
- Avoid intense heat (sauna or sunbed) for 48 hours post-treatment
- Continue using medical-grade skincare products recommended by your practitioner.
