Thermage is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that firms and contours the skin without injections or surgery. It uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate your body’s natural renewal of collagen, gradually improving firmness and tone.
Because it works with your own collagen and needs no downtime, Thermage is a popular option for softening early laxity on both the face and body. It can be used across a range of areas, including the face, eyes, stomach, arms, hands, thighs and buttocks.
Thermage is often used to help with:
Thermage uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, where your collagen sits. The treatment tip cools and protects the surface of the skin while the energy penetrates below it to heat the collagen fibres, which prompts your body to firm and renew them over time. The average treatment takes around 40 to 90 minutes depending on the size, location and condition of the area, and many areas are treated in a single session.
Thermage is generally comfortable and well tolerated. As the energy is delivered you will feel a brief heating sensation on the skin, which some people find mildly uncomfortable, balanced by the cooling of the treatment tip. We check in with you throughout to keep the treatment comfortable.
There is no downtime with Thermage. You can return to your normal activities straight after your treatment, which is one of the reasons it is such a convenient option.
Thermage suits people with mild to moderate skin laxity who want to firm and contour their skin without injections or surgery. It works gradually and is not a substitute for surgery where there is significant sagging, so part of the consultation is making sure your expectations and the treatment are well matched. Dr Nasser will assess your skin and let you know whether Thermage is the right option for you.
Thermage can be used on the face and around the eyes, and on the body, including the stomach, arms, hands, thighs and buttocks. At your consultation we confirm which areas are suited to treatment for you.
Most people find Thermage comfortable. You will feel a brief heating sensation as the energy is delivered, offset by the cooling tip, and we adjust the treatment to keep you comfortable throughout.
Many areas respond well to a single Thermage treatment, with results developing gradually afterwards. We will confirm what is right for your skin and goals at your consultation.
Thermage works gradually as your collagen renews. Tightening and contouring typically appear over the two to six months following your treatment.
No. Thermage firms and tightens skin without surgery and suits mild to moderate laxity, but it does not achieve what surgery can where there is significant sagging. We will talk through realistic options for your skin at your consultation.
A considered approach to aesthetics begins with expert guidance.
