Wisdom may come with age, but sadly, so do wrinkles and other changes to your skin you may not love. Just like your favorite sweater’s fibers loosen a bit more with every wear, your skin’s fibers loosen with every passing year.
Change is natural—and inevitable—but at Success by Design, we don’t believe in settling for feeling less than your best. Those lines around your mouth and eyes from years of laughter are signs of living, but if they’re taking a toll on your confidence, we’re here to help.
Here’s how you can reclaim your youth from head to toe with Exion in St. Petersburg.

What causes skin aging?
Every year after the age of 20, your body reduces collagen production by about 1%. Collagen proteins act as the building blocks of your skin, so without sufficient collagen, your skin’s internal framework weakens. These proteins also help your skin produce new cells in the dermis—the middle layer of your skin—so as they decline, you may notice negative changes in your skin’s texture, tone, and overall health.
Your skin also produces less elastin over the years—a substance that gives your skin its ability to stretch and “bounce” back into place—and that loss leads to sagging, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
As these natural resources diminish, your face isn’t the only area affected. All of your skin—from head to toe—can show signs of premature aging, especially if you lose weight (as your skin cells can’t “shrink” as fast as you burn fat cells).
How Exion Works
Exion technology triggers your body’s natural healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production to reverse skin aging and damage—naturally. This advanced system delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy through microscopic needles or compounded with targeted ultrasound, rejuvenating your skin on a deeper level to melt fat, reduce wrinkles, or smooth skin texture.
Exion is the only device on the market that boosts hyaluronic acid production by 200%. Hyaluronic acid—the same ingredient in dermal filler—hydrates your skin, restoring natural volume and smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.

Exion Face
From wrinkles to uneven skin texture and dull skin tone, Exion skin tightening treats it all painlessly. While boosting your hyaluronic acid (HA) supply to improve your skin’s moisture barrier, Exion’s radiofrequency and ultrasound technologies simultaneously rebuild your skin internally by triggering collagen and elastin production.
Exion Body
We recognize that your skin concerns don’t stop with your face, which is why we also offer Exion skin tightening and fat reduction for the body! Using specialized applicators designed to address larger, harder-to-reach areas, Exion Body restores your skin to its former glory. Beyond tightening loose skin, we also use Exion in St. Petersburg to break down fat cells through heat—similar to how the Emsculpt NEO system kills stubborn fat!
Exion RF Microneedling
Microneedling—the process of using ultra-fine needles to create controlled “micro-wounds” and kick-start the healing process—has revolutionized skincare. We’re taking this natural approach to skin rejuvenation further by infusing radiofrequency (RF) into the needles through Exion’s RF microneedling applicator, offering the same results in a single pass, unlike traditional devices which require multiple, less comfortable passes.
This reduces downtime by expediting the healing process. Plus, our experts have mastered the art and science behind tailoring the settings to treat different skin concerns on the face and body—from acne scars to stretch marks and beyond.
What to Expect From Exion
When you come to Success by Design for Exion near Clearwater, don’t expect standardized care. We tailor every aspect of our approach to help you meet your goals on your terms. Whether you’re looking to slim your physique without taking away from your curves, or get your glow back before a photo-filled event, we’ve mastered the art and science to get you there.
Here’s how we do it.
Your Consultation
Before starting Exion in St. Petersburg, our providers will take the time to sit down and get to know you face-to-face. During your initial consultation, we’ll review your situation—including your medical history, concerns, goals, lifestyle, budget, and timeline—to determine if Exion is your best solution.
From there, we’ll create your treatment plan and decide how many sessions you’ll need. Typically, we recommend a series of 6 weekly treatments for both Exion Face and Exion Body, and 3 sessions—each spaced 2 to 6 weeks apart—for Exion RF microneedling with exosomes.
Next, we’ll discuss if and how additional treatments can take your results (and investment) even further.
Can you combine Exion with other skin rejuvenation treatments?
Absolutely! We’re big believers in the power of combination therapies, and the science backs that too. We offer a wide range of skin rejuvenation and weight loss solutions, including:

- Sculptra
- Hydrafacial (face and body)
- Emface
- VI peels (face and body)
- Chemical peels
- RF microneedling
- Body contouring
- Medical weight loss
Especially when combining technologies, you’ll need to be honest with your provider about your situation. Layering treatments requires an in-depth understanding of the science behind them, which is why your consultation is so important to your success.
What’s the difference between Exion and Emface?
While radiofrequency powers both skin rejuvenation technologies, Exion combines RF with microneedling or targeted ultrasound, while Emface combines RF with electromagnetic muscle stimulation (EMMS).
Both systems naturally tighten your skin, but do so differently. Exion tightens skin by melting fat and boosting collagen production, while Emface—and Emsculpt NEO—tighten skin by melting fat and triggering muscle contractions (increasing muscle volume).

Your Treatment
The day of your appointment for Exion in St. Petersburg, remember to avoid applying lotions, perfumes, and makeup to the treatment area. And while you’re free to wash the area with a gentle cleanser, avoid scrubs and other exfoliants the week leading up to your session (and stop using retinols and other medications as directed).
Your provider will lead you back to a private treatment room and answer any questions you have before helping you get comfortable in the treatment chair. Then, we’ll carefully move the Exion applicator across your treatment area.
When we begin your session, which takes under 60 minutes, you can expect warmth similar to that of a relaxing hot stone massage. Treatment is painless.
There’s zero downtime with Exion Face and Body. However, after Exion RF microneedling, we recommend avoiding direct sunlight and strenuous physical activity or excessive sweating for the next week. Any minor swelling or redness should resolve within a few days of your session—no need to take off work or worry about pain medications.
Maintaining Your Results
Remember, Exion works by harnessing your body’s natural regenerative powers, so your results will build over time. As your body produces more collagen and elastin and flushes out the destroyed fat cells, you’ll continue to see improvements!
Typically, our patients start to see results about 4 weeks after their first session, achieving their ideal results following 6 to 8 sessions. After completing your treatment plan for Exion in St. Petersburg, you can enjoy your results for about a year without maintenance. If you want to maintain your results for even longer, we’ll help you schedule less frequent maintenance sessions based on your situation.
You can also support your results at home by optimizing your skincare routine! At Success by Design, we offer a wide selection of science-backed professional skincare products. Unlike drugstore products, these formulas contain higher levels of potent active ingredients to better target your specific concerns. Even better—our skin specialists can help you build your routine so you don’t have to guess on your own (maximizing your financial and time savings)!
