The delicate eye area is often the first place we see signs of aging—puffiness, fine lines, crepey skin, and drooping lids can make us look tired or older than we feel. At The Dermatology, Laser & Vein Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, we offer Exilis Ultra as a powerful, non-invasive solution for rejuvenating the eye area without surgery, needles, or downtime.
Exilis Ultra combines radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen, tighten loose skin, and smooth fine lines. It’s safe for the thin, fragile skin around the eyes and can help restore a more awake, refreshed, and youthful appearance.
Why the Eye Area Needs Special Attention
The skin around the eyes is:
-
Thinner and more delicate than other areas of the face
-
Prone to early collagen loss
-
Susceptible to fluid retention and puffiness
-
Frequently affected by sun exposure, stress, and poor sleep
Traditional anti-aging products may not deliver enough collagen stimulation, and surgery isn’t always necessary—or desirable—for early signs of aging. That’s where Exilis Ultra comes in.
How Exilis Ultra Works Around the Eyes
Exilis Ultra uses a unique combination of radiofrequency and ultrasound to:
-
Heat the dermis (deeper layer of skin)
-
Stimulate new collagen and elastin
-
Improve circulation and reduce fluid retention
-
Promote skin tightening and firming
-
Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
The device delivers controlled thermal energy, which is comfortable and safe for the eye area, even near the lash line and brows.
What It Treats
Exilis Ultra effectively addresses several common concerns around the eyes:
-
Under-eye puffiness
-
Crepey texture and thinning skin
-
Fine lines and crow’s feet
-
Sagging upper lids or brow area
-
Tired or aged appearance
It can also lift and contour the brow, helping to restore a more youthful eye shape without surgery.

Maximum results at 12 weeks
Results can last 6–12 months, with annual maintenance treatments helping to prolong the effects.
