Face Tightening with Thermage
TThermage® is the only non-invasive procedure that helps tighten and contour your skin in a single treatment—with no surgery, no injections, and little to no downtime. Thermage® stimulates your body’s natural renewal of collagen, which creates subtle, natural looking results on your face and body, including tighter, smoother skin, softened wrinkles and lines, and an overall younger looking appearance.
Thermage® uses unique radiofrequency (RF) technology to safely heat the deep layers of your skin, while cooling the surface of your skin to keep it intact during the procedure. This deep heating stimulates your body’s natural skin renewal process, which helps tighten existing collagen and form new collagen. Over time, sagging or wrinkled skin is replaced with smoother, tighter skin along with improved tone and texture-- an overall younger looking appearance.
There is no downtime with Thermage®, you can return to your life immediately after a treatment. Some patients exhibit a temporary redness or minor swelling after treatment, but this usually goes away within 24 hours. Results may start to appear immediately after treatment, and continue gradually up to six months following treatment.
Thermage® procedure reduces the signs of aging skin to give you a more youthful appearance. It is also called ThermaCool™ ThermaLift and Radiothermoplasty and is a safe, unique, non-invasive, advanced method for tightening skin using computer controlled radio frequency energy. It is used for non-surgical brow lifts and non-surgical tightening of facial wrinkles, and the treatment of loose skin on the arms, thighs and abdomen. It does not require any recovery time.
