Non Invasive \ Thermage

THERMAGE

 Thermage is a non-surgical skin tightening procedure that uses radio waves to lift and firm the skin. It can be used to rejuvenate several areas of your body, including your face, stomach, knees, arms, legs or butt. Thermage was originally used to tighten facial skin, smooth wrinkles and improve facial contours without incisions or downtime. The procedure is often a good option for people who don't want a full facelift, and for those who would like more lasting results than an injectable filler such as Restylane or Juvederm would provide.

 When applied to the face, Thermage can lift sagging eyebrows, increase the prominence of cheekbones, and redefine the jawline. Additionally, Thermage can tighten wrinkled facial skin, improve the appearance of double chins and turkey necks, and eliminate the signs of aging on the hands. These results are achieved through radio frequency energy which delivers gentle pulses to the face to heat collagen, a structural protein located in the deep layers of the skin. The heat helps build and contract collagen, which in turn tightens the appearance of the skin's surface. During each pulse, the outer layer of the skin is cooled while the deeper layers of skin and fat are heated to induce collagen tightening.

Results You Can Expect from Thermage

 Thermage results may be apparent after just one procedure. The skin tightens during the initial process and continues to tighten for three to six months afterward. The procedure also stimulates your body's healing process, which produces more natural collagen over time.
