What is Thermage?
Thermage is a non-invasive surgical procedure for skin tightening. Using a combination of heat energy and the Monopolar Radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen formation in deep tissue, Thermage helps to tighten the skin, producing a smoother and younger look in a single treatment. In addition, alternating pulses of heating and cooling make the procedure very refreshing and comfortable.
How It Works
Thermage is a proven radiofrequency treatment that transforms skin by working below the surface and addresses a wide range of surface imperfections that result from age and environmental factors. Benefits include the smoothing of wrinkly or uneven skin, better definition of facial features around the eyes, jaw and neckline, and even the smoothing and toning of unsightly bulges, dimples and wrinkles on the face and body.
Thermage radiofrequency energy works with your body, remodeling your collagen to help your skin get that smooth feel and youthful look you want. Thermage treats targeted problem areas – so the results are focused and effective.
Thermage Procedure
1. ThermaTip will be used to give a cooling sensation on the area that will be treated by the dermatologist.
2. Heat energy from RF will then be applied. Alternating hot (from RF) and cold (from the ThermaTip) pulses will be applied throughout the procedure.
3. RF energy will penetrate deep into the skin tissue, heating the treatment areas and stimulating the formation of collagen.
4. The duration of treatment will vary from 20 mins to 2 hrs, depending on the area treated and its condition.
