Thermage is a body and facial treatment that tightens and lifts the skin by encouraging collagen synthesis.
Collagen requires several months to generate; the Thermage Radio Frequency bulk heating mechanism encourages new collagen formation, which takes 3-6 months, and the patient should expect to have a fuller, more toned, and lifted appearance throughout this period.
Thermage Monopolar Radio Frequency has the advantage that the bulk heating targets the collagen-rich layers of the dermis, boosting the formation of new collagen, but the RF also travels through the fibrous septea, forcing them to contract and providing a contouring effect.
Enhance skin quality and achieve a younger-looking appearance with obvious effects after just one Thermage treatment. It will address fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven, loose, or dimpled skin, and can even temporarily diminish the appearance of cellulite.
With really no surgery, needles, or downtime, Thermage provides tighter skin and long-lasting results with only one treatment.
It is a non-invasive, safe cosmetic process that has been clinically proven to tighten, smooth, and shape your skin for a more youthful appearance. Here's all you need to know about this cutting-edge skin care therapy.
Benefits of Thermage Laser Treatment
We are no longer a culture that silently accepts the effects of aging, which means we are always on the lookout for the next product or service to help renew our looks. Skin laxity, which distorts the entire face, is a prevalent issue. It is caused by broken collagen strands and drags down your features, making you look much older than your years.
Thermage is a therapy that delivers extremely concentrated low-amplitude radiofrequency radiation. When applied to the skin, it causes a controlled and selective rise in temperature. In conjunction with a predetermined depth of heating, this produces thermal injury to skin tissues, which drives collagen changes in the skin's deepest layers, including subcutaneous tissue. As a result, collagen may be counted.
Enjoy skin that is tight and young in appearance.

Simple and effective
Because Thermage CPT requires no downtime, you can resume normal activities and apply makeup immediately.
Collagen Synthesis
It's hard to imagine good skin without additionally considering collagen. It is a protein that is spontaneously created by the body and is also a vital component of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM is a network of non-living tissues that gives cells form and structure. The term extra-cellular refers to the location of the matrix outside of the cell.
Elastin, which gives skin its snap-back strength and keeps it taut, is another important component of the ECM. Collagen and elastin work in tandem, and stimulating the former causes the latter to increase as well. As a result of the treatment, the skin becomes stronger and more resilient. It is especially efficient in tightening loose jowls, creases around the mouth, and fine lines across the eyelids.
New Collagen
However, the treatment does more than just increase collagen production. It also degrades old collagen, allowing stronger and healthier proteins to replace it. Consider this a building renovation in which old and crumbling foundational blocks are removed and replaced with new ones. In your mind, you immediately know this serves to improve the building’s overall structural integrity. Treatment, which works in a similar manner, offers such benefits:
A smoother and more radiant complexion
Skin that looks lifted and firmer
Fewer lines and wrinkles
Diminished acne scars
A collagen boost will also help to prevent further signs of aging. Small cracks that lead to wrinkles and fine lines are "filled in" as the underlying ECM becomes stronger. This means that the matrix's fibers and proteins thicken, plumping the skin for as long as collagen production remains stable. This results in a more youthful complexion for longer.
A Silky Sheen to Skin
Your skin will recover its natural gloss as it gets smoother. Consider this for a moment: a child's skin has a softer and more supple gloss than an adult's. This can be attributed to a variety of causes, including more efficient cell turnover. This is the body's normal process of replacing old, dull skin cells with new ones.
In general, cell turnover occurs every 28 days, however, this window of time grows longer as we age. By the age of 50, turnover has slowed to around once every 50 days. This means that dead cells remain on the skin's surface for a longer period of time, contributing to a dull and tired appearance. Taking them out and pushing healthy cells to the surface.
Versatile Treatment
Treatment is ideal for tightening loose or sagging skin around the eyes (crow's feet), in the forehead, and along the jawline due to its versatility. This final area, the jawline, is particularly beneficial in giving you a more youthful appearance. A sculpted jaw can highlight your natural contours, revealing necklines, and enhance your features.
Very Natural Results
Previously, the trend in aesthetic therapy was to provide patients with very noticeable results that quickly alerted others that they'd had "work done." That fad has happily passed us by, and we now embrace treatments that improve our appearance in subtle but noticeable ways. This treatment achieves these outcomes without making you appear frozen or unnatural.
In the same vein, firmer skin can be expected within a few days of treatment. Results will continue to emerge in the next three to six months as collagen production ramps up. You’ll notice improvements relative to your skin’s tone, texture, and clarity throughout this time.
Quick and Simple
While there are many skins tightening treatments available today, many of them are time-consuming for patients who lead busy lives. This therapy is unique in that it achieves the desired results in as few as one or two sessions. Your appointment will last approximately one hour, but the cost is significant. Results can last around two years, which is substantially longer than many other treatments.
No Surgery Involved
We must emphasize that this is a non-surgical procedure. Many people avoid treatments because they do not want to be sedated or have to recuperate for an extended period of time. With thermage, you have neither; therapy is also painless, and you may usually resume your daily activities right away. Surgery, on the other hand, often necessitates three to four weeks of recovery time.
In case you're wondering, this therapy has been shown to be both safe and effective. Radiofrequency can be used to cure laxity without hurting surrounding tissues, according to studies published by the National Institutes of Health. Thermage is also FDA-approved and has been used to treat patients all over the world with proven success.
Conclusion
Facial drooping may annoy everyone as they age, and the right answer may not be clear in a society full of fads and marketing hype.
Facelifts may be an expensive investment; thus it is important to fully understand the procedures you are considering so that you are not disappointed!
