Thermage
Thermage is the only non-invasive procedure used to tighten loose, sagging skin
and is better known as the “non-surgical facelift”.
Thermage was developed to help the signs of aging by lifting and tightening sagging
loose facial skin. Without surgery, radio frequency energy is used to heat the tissue
below the skin while keeping the skin’s surface cool. This tightens your existing
collagen and stimulates new collagen growth giving the skin a more youthful, firmer
look.
Results will vary from patient to patient, depending on your age, treatment area,
skin laxity and lifestyle. Your face will have a more youthful, refreshed look.
Some patients see an improvement within a few days; you should however expect to
see results over a period of 2-6 months. The results may last for at least 1-2 years
or longer depending on the rate of the aging process.
Treating the forehead can lift the eyebrow enhancing the appearance of the eyes,
giving you a less tired more alert look. Treating the cheeks, neck and jowl areas
will reduce the skin’s sagginess that produces deep folds with aging. (ThermaCOOL
