What Is EXION?
EXION is a skin treatment developed by BTL Aesthetics, the same company behind EMFACE. It combines two technologies in a single session and requires no needles, fillers, or surgery. Treatment can target the cheeks, chin, jawline, and neck, and even the lips, where a focused session takes just a few minutes.
What sets it apart is hyaluronic acid, the molecule that helps skin hold moisture and look naturally full. Fillers add it with injections, while EXION prompts your body to produce more of its own. Because EXION works beneath the outer layer of skin, it goes beyond what facials or peels can do.
How Does EXION Work?
Monopolar radiofrequency gently heats the deeper layers of the skin, signaling the body to build new collagen and elastin. That added support helps the treated area look firmer and more resilient over time.
At the same time, targeted ultrasound boosts the natural production of hyaluronic acid. The result is a smoother, more hydrated complexion with softer fine lines and a healthier glow.

What to Expect With EXION
Consultation
Your first visit is a conversation about what you would like to improve, whether that is jaw tension, fine lines around your lips, or both. Dr. Wassif also considers any dental work you have completed or have planned, then recommends whether EXION works best on its own or alongside EMFACE or EXION Clear RF.
Treatment Process
You relax in the chair while a handheld applicator moves across the treatment area, delivering radiofrequency and ultrasound energy. Most patients describe the sensation as soothing, similar to a warm compress, and no numbing is needed. Plans often include four sessions spaced one to two weeks apart.
After Your Treatment
You can return to work, school, or errands as soon as your session ends. Any pinkness in the treated area tends to settle within a few hours, and results continue to build over the following weeks as your body responds.
EXION Results
Some patients notice a fresher, more hydrated look within days of treatment. The most noticeable changes build over two to three months as your body produces new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
In BTL’s research, treated skin showed a 224% increase in hyaluronic acid, though individual results may vary. Because that boost comes from your own body, the change looks natural rather than “done.” Results are not permanent, since your skin continues to age, but maintenance sessions can help you keep them over time.
Is EXION Right for You?
EXION is a good option for patients who want smoother, more hydrated skin without needles or downtime. It may be a good fit for:
- Jaw tension or tightness, as a soothing addition to TMJ care
- Recently completed cosmetic or restorative dental work
- Fine lines around the mouth or along the lips
- Skin that feels drier or less firm than it used to
- Interest in a needle-free alternative to fillers
- A desire to stay ahead of early signs of aging
Dr. Wassif will review your goals and health history during your consultation to confirm whether EXION is right for you.

EXION FAQs
Where can I get EXION in Middle River, MD?
Can EXION help with TMJ or jaw tension?
EXION is not a TMJ treatment on its own, but the gentle warmth may help ease tension around the jaw. For ongoing TMJ symptoms, Dr. Wassif may recommend combining it with EMFACE or other TMJ care as part of a broader plan.
How is EXION different from EMFACE?
EXION focuses on skin quality, improving hydration, firmness, and fine lines. EMFACE works on the facial muscles, including those involved in jaw tension. Many patients combine the two, and Dr. Wassif can help you decide which fits your goals.
Is EXION safe?
EXION is non-invasive, with no needles, incisions, or anesthesia. Dr. Wassif reviews your health history before treatment to make sure it is a good fit for you.
How much does EXION cost, and is it covered by insurance?
Cost depends on the areas treated and the number of sessions in your plan. Because EXION is a cosmetic treatment, it is typically not covered by dental insurance. We will review pricing with you during your consultation.
