Thermage
Treatment overview
Thermage uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat deeper layers of skin, stimulating your body’s natural collagen regeneration. This gradual process tightens existing collagen and produces new collagen over 3-6 months. Thermage can smooth skin on the eyelids, face, lips, neck, hands and body, addressing wrinkles, sagging skin, scars and cellulite. Thermage involves no surgery or downtime.
How Thermage works
The device delivers temperature-controlled radiofrequency energy to the dermal layer. This triggers immediate collagen contraction while also promoting long-term collagen remodelling. A vibration handpiece and integrated cooling system ensures patient comfort.
Thermage Treatment Process
The face is cleansed and treatment grids are mapped out. A device tip is passed repeatedly over the skin for 30-90 minutes depending on the area size. Most patients find the heating sensations tolerable. The eyes may be numbed before small plastic shields are inserted to protect during eyelid treatment.Temporary redness or minor swelling can occur afterwards.
Results
Some see moderate improvement after 1 session, but multiple treatments are usually needed for best outcomes based on your individual collagen response. Consult your provider about options.
