Radio Frequency

Thermage uses unique radiofrequency (RF) technology to safely heat the deep layers of your skin, while cooling the surface of your skin to keep it intact during the procedure.
This deep heating stimulates your body’s natural skin renewal process, which helps tighten existing collagen and form new collagen. Over time, sagging or wrinkled skin is replaced with smoother, tighter skin; improved tone and texture; and an overall younger looking appearance.

THE LAYERS OF YOUR SKIN Your skin is made up of three distinct layers:
The epidermis – the visible outer surface
The dermis – the collagen rich layer beneath the surface
Subcutaneous tissue – the “fat layer” beneath the dermis that also has a web of collagen fibers
The collagen in your dermis and subcutaneous tissue is a protein that keeps your skin youthful and tight. But as you age and get more sun exposure, that collagen simply breaks down faster than your body can rebuild it, and your skin may start to sag or wrinkle.

THE REAL YOU COMING INTO VIEW Thermage is an easy way to turn back the clock on aging skin – on all skin colors, on and off the face. Thermage can help you rejoice in a younger looking you.
