Thermage® helps to significantly slow skin-aging by preventing the body’s natural collagen degradation process.

WHAT IS it?

Patented Thermage® technology combines the thermal effect of unipolar radiofrequency energy with a cooling process that protects the skin’s surface layers in a treatment that’s comfortable for patients. Once your Thermage® body treatment is complete, optimize the results of your skin tightening with ZWave technology.

Continuous unipolar radiofrequency pulses penetrate the skin’s layers down to the subcutaneous fatty tissue, heating up collagen fibres and causing them to contract and expand in a process that triggers the body’s own collagen and elastin renewal process. As early as in our 30s, collagen production starts to decline by about 1% a year. Thermage® helps to significantly slow skin-aging by preventing the body’s natural collagen degradation process. This non-invasive cosmetic procedure is proven to improve skin appearance (i.e., tighten lax skin, reduce wrinkles, smooth body contours) and can temporarily improve the appearance of cellulite. Normally, just one 2.5-hour treatment is all you need to achieve visible results. No recovery time is needed, and there is no redness or swelling of the treated area.

how does it work?

Thermage® uses patented Controlled Pulse Technology™ (CPT) to safely and comfortably deliver radio frequency heat energy into the skin’s depths. The matrix of supportive fibers in the dermis respond to this heat by remodelling damaged collagen fibers and activating the synthesis of new collagen, resulting in visibly firmer and tighter skin. The Thermage® treatment involves no downtime or recovery period, allowing patients to immediately return to their daily routine. The firming effects take place over the weeks and months following the treatment as the new collagen is produced. Skin tightening benefits continue to arise for up to six months post treatment, with annual follow up treatments recommended to maintain and enhance these results.
