Thermage™
If you are just starting to show signs or aging, or have some return of skin laxity after a procedure, you probably don’t need surgery. However, you also don’t have to wait until things get bad enough before doing something. Thermage provides a non-invasive option for skin tightening without any downtime.
Thermage uses radio frequency energy to tighten the collagen within the skin. You can see immediate results, although usually the final result can take up to 6 months. The results are more subtle than surgery, but can be the perfect solution if you are looking for a little improvement without an operation or down time.
Are you a candidate?
What may make you a good candidate for Thermage™:

- You have acne concerns.
Results to expect:
Some people will notice immediate improvement in wrinkles and jowls, although most see improvement in 4-12 weeks. Your results continue to improve for an average of 6 months after your procedure.
