Thermage
Thermage is an effective and safe skin tightening treatment that improves skin elasticity and minimizes the appearance of sagging skin around the face, eyes, and neck.
This non-invasive procedure uses unique monopolar (RF) radiofrequency technology to gently heat the collagen-rich, deeper skin layers, revealing younger, tighter, and smoother skin. The results of Thermage may last up to 1-2 years and keep improving for up to six months with minimal to zero downtime.
Thermage is the first (RF) radiofrequency technology that minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your face and body. It also helps to reduce the appearance of cellulite. The innovative treatment allows for deeper penetration through the skin to heat subcutaneous tissue and fat and dermal tissue.
As you get older, your body’s collagen that keeps your skin firm breaks down, causing fine lines and wrinkles to appear. The non-surgical Thermage technology directs heat to certain areas of your skin to restart the body’s natural collagen regeneration process for skin that looks younger without surgery. Existing collagen is repaired, and new collagen formation is encouraged when heat is administered to the skin’s deeper layers, improving the look of sagging or loose skin.
Thermage begins by placing a grid on your skin, which directs the handpiece’s application to a particular region of the skin. Radiofrequency radiation heats the treatment regions and penetrates deep into the skin’s tissue to modify the skin’s existing collagen and encourage the generation of new collagen for overall younger-looking skin. The machine’s pulses offer personalized radiofrequency to each square inch of the treated area, then proceeded by a double cryogen cooling effect.
Here are a few reasons why this cosmetic procedure has received so much worldwide fame:
It Works Together With Your Body’s Collagen Production Process
Thermage is a non-surgical procedure that tightens the skin by increasing the synthesis of collagen. The heat from the radiofrequency waves breaks down existing collagen, allowing your body to replace it with new collagen that is stronger and healthier.
It Can Treat The Skin’s Deeper Layers
Radiofrequency waves can enter the skin without causing damage to the outer layer. These can penetrate the skin’s deeper layers, increasing collagen production for weeks following the procedure.
It Has Few Negative Effects And Requires Little Downtime
You won’t have to worry about extreme redness, flaking, blistering, or scabbing since Thermage doesn’t damage the skin’s surface. After the treatment, your skin may feel warm and red, but this will go away quickly.
Thermage can help with a variety of skin issues. The following people are the best candidates for the procedure:
