Thermage is a leading non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses radio-frequency energy to regenerate and remodel collagen through a natural process for a smooth and toned look that helps erode visible signs of aging.
Thermage uses patented radiofrequency (RF) technology to safely heat the deeper layers of your skin, stimulating existing collagen and promoting new collagen growth for younger-looking skin. No surgery – just naturally younger-looking skin that can take years off your appearance. As you age, the collagen in your skin breaks down resulting in wrinkles and sagging skin. The results can last for years depending on your skin condition and the natural aging process.
