FAQS:
What is Thermage?
Thermage is a safe, non-invasive, radiofrequency (RF)
cosmetic procedure that’s clinically proven to help smooth,
tighten and contour skin for an overall younger looking
appearance. The treatment delivers natural looking results
with little to no downtime—on all skin colors, on and off the
face, all in a single procedure.
What parts of the body does Thermage treat?
Thermage procedures can effectively and safely treat skin on
most body parts, including the face, eyes, lips, tummy, arms,
hands, thighs and buttocks. Thermage can also temporarily
reduce the appearance of cellulite.
How many treatments will I need?
Unlike many laser procedures requiring four or more sessions,
Thermage treatment delivers results in a single treatment for
most patients. In fact, when it comes to skin tightening and
contouring with little to no downtime, Thermage is the only
single treatment, non-invasive procedure on the market.
How long are the treatments?
Thermage treatments average about 45 minutes for the face
and up to an hour and a half for other parts of the body,
depending on the size, location and condition of the area to be
treated. Since Thermage is a short procedure and a single
treatment, it fits into your busy lifestyle.
How does Thermage work?
Thermage uses radiofrequency technology to heat the deep,
collagen rich layers of your skin. The heat helps tighten
existing collagen and stimulate the formation of new collagen,
which reduces sagging, renews contours, and improves the
smoothness and texture of the skin’s surface.
When will I see results?
Visible results may be immediate, and they may appear over
time in the course of your body’s natural collagen rebuilding
process. For most patients, measurable tightening and
contouring appear gradually in the two to six months following
a single treatment session. Results can last years depending
on your skin condition and aging process.
What does it feel like?
Each time the treatment device touches your skin, you’ll feel a
brief cooling sensation, followed by a deep but brief heating
sensation, followed by another cooling sensation. The heating
sensation is a sign that the deep layers of your skin are
reaching effective temperatures for tightening. Throughout the
procedure, your physician will ask for feedback on the level of
heat sensation to help balance your comfort with maximum
results.
Is Thermage FDA approved?
Thermage is FDA cleared for the non-invasive treatment of
wrinkles and temporary improvement in the appearance of
cellulite. In addition, Thermage is the first and only system to
receive FDA clearance for non-invasive eyelid treatments.
