Non-surgical Face Lifts

Here's something to smile about: a younger-looking face without surgery or stitches. Thermage, an incision-free procedure that involves the use of a patented radio frequency technology called ThermaCool, promises to tighten skin and smooth wrinkles without any of the above.

Appropriate for all types of skin, Thermage does not involve the use of lasers and has been FDA approved for the non-invasive treatment of wrinkles. During treatment, controlled amounts of radio frequencies are delivered to specific areas, heating layers of deep, underlying tissue, while leaving surface skin cool. Thermage proponents claim the heating action causes skin to tighten and that repeated procedures result in improved skin collagen structure. The recovery period is generally very short and often limited to a few days of redness that is similar to a sunburn.

Only a qualified physician should administer Thermage.
