Ever dreamed of having a “non-surgical
face lift?” With Thermage your prayers may be
answered and it only takes one treatment to see incredible
results that are immediately noticeable. Thermage offers
a way to tighten and tone your skin without the pain or
down time of injections or surgery.
The Thermage procedure is an FDA approved non-invasive treatment
that delivers tighter skin, renewed facial contours and
healthier collagen. (Collagen is the building block that
provides structure to your skin.) The Thermage procedure
is available only in the offices of qualified physicians
who specialize in cosmetic procedures.
The Thermage procedure employs a patented monopolar capacitive
radiofrequency (CRF) technology called ThermaCool™.
It has been clinically proven to tighten and gently lift
skin to smooth out wrinkles and renew facial contours. The
incision-free procedure is fast and easy, and requires no
downtime from normal activities. Unlike lasers, Thermage
will not change the color of your skin and can be performed
on patients of all skin types.
The ThermaCool system uses a sophisticated treatment tip
called ThermaTip™, which delivers a controlled amount
of energy. With each touch to the skin, the ThermaTip device
uniformly heats a volume of collagen in the deeper layers
of the skin and its underlying tissue while simultaneously
helping to protect the outer layer of the skin with cooling.
This deep uniform heating action causes deep structures
in your skin to immediately tighten. Over time, new and
remodeled collagen is produced to further tighten skin,
resulting in healthier, smoother skin and a more youthful
appearance.
Thermage can be used to rejuvenate many
areas of the body including your entire face, eyes, lips,
arms, thighs and tummy.
Although immediate tightening is seen
in most patients, the full effects of your treatment will
not be seen for 6 months as new collagen will continue to
be stimulated over time.
Unlike injections or surgery, Thermage
is not painful. Patients have no problems tolerating this
procedure without any form of anesthesia. A brief heating
or tingling sensation in the treated areas is experienced
as the Thermage tip delivers the energy to the skin.
Let your natural beauty shine and put
your best face forward with Thermage.
