Thermage offered in NYC

What is Thermage?

It is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) therapy that can tighten skin, renew facial contours, and stimulate your body to make healthier collagen - the building block that provides structure to your skin. 

​

How does it work?

As we age, the collagen that keeps skin firm breaks down, resulting in sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles. Thermage uses radiofrequency technology to heat the deep, collagen-rich layers of the skin, while the tip vibrates and cools the surface to help aid in patient comfort. The applied heat separates the water molecules from the fibrous collagen, causing an immediate contraction, resulting in skin tightening. Over the next few months, the secondary healing response continues as collagen is deposited and remodeled. The new collagen growth tightens the skin over time nd continues to improve for up to 6 months.

Why choose Thermage?

It is a one quick treatment (30-90 minutes depending on the treatment area) that can deliver outstanding results for most patients. It has integrated cooling with pulsed RF and vibration to aid in patient comfort. There is little to no downtime so no need to miss work or fun. Results improve over time and can be long lasting. It is recommended as part of an annual skin rejuvenation maintenance program. It can treat multiple areas. It treats wrinkles and loose skin on the face, around the eyes and on the body.

What are the side effects?

 Some patients have temporary redness or minor swelling after treatment, but usually goes away within 24 hours.
