THERMAGE is a FDA approved medical procedure that can be performed only by accredited plastic surgeons, aesthetic physicians and dermatologists.
The main structural component of the dermis is a collagen, which provides the skin its strength. As we age, the body produces less collagen resulting in wrinkles and sagging .The Thermage procedure causes the collagen in the dermal layers of the skin and its underlying tissue to tighten, thereby reducing skin laxity and wrinkles and renewing facial contours.
The Thermage procedure for skin tightening uses patented radio frequency technology to create controlled zone of heating in the dermis and the underlying tissue. At the same time the epidermis is protected with continual cooling. Heating of the collagen to critical temperatures, initiates a natural biological reaction that causes the collagen to contract and thicken, resulting in o tighter, smoother looking skin immediately after the procedure.
In addition, the body also initiates a second response to heating within the dermis and underlying tissue. This response is part of the body’s natural healing response and initiates new collagen creation providing long-term tightening of the skin. The combination of these two processes, provide immediate skin tightening and long-term tightening effects.
While there are a number of procedures available that affect collagen, only the Thermage procedure offers a completely non-invasive, no-downtime method to tighten loose skin and long lasting results in a single treatment.
