7 Benefits of Thermage

Thermage uses radiofrequency energy to produce thermal reactions within your skin, and if you’d like to have tighter skin, it’s a treatment worth considering.

During the procedure, a small device is gently pressed against your skin and radiofrequency energy is produced by the device. Since the treatment uses RF energy, it doesn’t require recovery time or incisions. This treatment can also be very effective for treating aging skin.

This treatment generates heat within the target area while using an advanced cooling system to protect the surface layer of your skin. The heat generated during the procedure causes two important processes to occur. First, the heat breaks down hydrogen bonds and causes your skin to tighten. The second major effect of the treatment is increased metabolism within the fatty layer of your skin. Here are 7 benefits we’d love to share with you about Thermage:

Great for Multiple Areas

Thermage is a popular choice because it can effectively treat multiple areas of your body in a single visit. Traditional surgery offers similar results, but it can only treat a few different areas of your body.

No Surgery Involved

Since it doesn’t require any incisions or general anesthesia, Thermage is great for patients who want to avoid invasive surgery.

No Downtime

Another benefit of Thermage is the lack of downtime, you can immediately return home and get back to your daily life. You don’t have to spend any time recovering in a hospital nor is your daily lifestyle put on hold.

Minimal to No Discomfort

Thermage is a popular option because it is considered to be a comfortable treatment.

Excellent Safety Record

Before undergoing any procedure, it’s important to investigate its safety record in which Thermage is regarded as a very safe procedure.

Improve the Appearance of Your Skin

This treatment improves skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles. It’s especially good at softening the wrinkles around your forehead, and by stimulating collagen production, it can tighten skin and significantly improve your overall appearance.

Enjoy a Youthful Appearance

Thermage can deliver great results for men and women, and it’s viewed as a great alternative to a surgical facelift. If you want to improve the overall texture of your skin and obtain a youthful appearance, Thermage can help.

Chin Up, Buttercup, With ThermiTight!

Did you know about our non-surgical treatment to address loose neck and jawline tissue. This treatment, ThermiTight, both tightens the lax neck skin as well as remove the fat that gives a full, fatty looking neck. Despite our extensive experience of over 3,000 face and neck lifts, this treatment may be the right fit for you vs. surgery.

What Is ThermiTight

ThermiTight is a safe, effective procedure that works by delivering precisely controlled thermal energy under the skin to the targeted tissue, causing immediate shrinkage.

The Difference Between ThermiTight vs. a Neck Lift

ThermiTight can be combined with simple fat suctioning and in some cases a more traditional neck lift. Traditional neck lifts tighten the underlying fibromuscular layer of the neck while removing excess skin. The ThermiTight system involves the use of a small, blunt probe. This probe is placed under the skin to accurately heat both the fibromuscular layer and the skin by controlling meticulous temperature parameters with internal thermostats and thermal imaging cameras. The result is skin that is stronger with more collagen and elastin as well as a tighter muscle layer.

What To Expect When Getting ThermiTight

The procedure is performed with local anesthesia. The procedure takes 30 minutes and 45 minutes with liposuction. A removable velcro chinstrap is worn for about 2 days after the treatment. The neck tightening begins as early as one week as the mild swelling reduces and the heated tissue contracts. Gradual tightening progresses over 6 months with improvements in some patients continuing for up to a year. Keep in mind that these results last years.

The Advantage Of ThermiTight

Convenience, as ThermiTight is performed in our office. Time-saving, as this treatment takes less than one hour.
Comfortable, as there is minimal discomfort and downtime. You can return to your normal activities in a matter of hours. Lasty, it is long-lasting. Results improve over time, and the effects have been shown to last several years.
