The ThermaCool system uses a sophisticated treatment tip called ThermaTip™, which delivers a controlled amount of RF energy. With each touch to the skin, the ThermaTip device uniformly heats a large volume of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin and its underlying tissue while simultaneously protecting the outer layer of the skin with cooling. This deep uniform heating action causes deep structures in your skin to immediately tighten. Over time, new and remodeled collagen is produced to further tighten skin, resulting in healthier, smoother skin and a more youthful appearance..

The Thermage is a non-surgical procedure that offers an innovative way to rejuvenate your face.

The most frequently reported incidents are: 

• Swelling
• Redness
• Bumps and blisters on or around the treated area

These side effects have usually disappeared in a few days or weeks. A rare (<0.2%) but longer lasting side effect described as a skin depression has also been reported. Consult with your physician regarding this and any other questions you may have on the safety record of the Thermage procedure.

The Dermatologist may discuss alternative approaches to the Thermage procedure. 

The best candidates for Thermage would be the people with thin faces who are just on the verge of needing a facelift and want to put it off for a few years.
