The effects of time can really do a number on your skin. Wrinkles and other signs of aging can also affect the way you feel about yourself. Fortunately, there are a number of cosmetic procedures available to help you get the look and feel of youthful skin again.
You may be thinking you don’t want to invest the time and money into a surgical procedure. Don’t worry. Thermage® may just be the answer for you.
This cosmetic treatment is non-invasive and requires little downtime. Using radiofrequency energy to smooth loose and sagging skin, Thermage® can provide the results you’re looking for.
About Thermage®
Thermage® is a convenient and versatile treatment that can be customized to meet your individual needs. The radiofrequency technology uses a combination of heating and cooling energy to boost your body’s healing processes.
Heat is delivered to penetrate into deep tissue areas, stimulating the collagen. Cooling is applied to comfort and protect the skin. Newer technology has improved the comfort level of Thermage®.
With little downtime necessary, you won’t need to miss out on the important events in your life.
Treatment Areas
One of the greatest benefits of Thermage® is the number of areas it can be used to treat. It’s gentle enough to treat the delicate skin around your eyes, addressing the wrinkles and hoods that make you look older and tired.
Furrows, lines and creases on the face can be plumped after a Thermage® treatment, and sagging skin around the jawline can be firmed.
The face receives the most exposure to the elements throughout your life, so it makes sense that so many people seek cosmetic treatment in these areas.
However, Thermage® is also very effective in providing a sleeker silhouette to the body by smoothing lumps and firming loose skin. These problems can’t often be fixed by diet and exercise alone.
What to Expect
The length of your session will vary depending on the area to be treated. You’ll achieve results and can usually begin to see the difference within a day after your procedure.
Your body will continue the regeneration of collagen, so optimal results may take up to six months to attain.
Your practitioner will monitor your comfort levels throughout your session. Feel free to return to your everyday routine immediately.
Thermage® radiofrequency technology provides effective and convenient improvements to many of the most common cosmetic skin issues.
