The very latest in skin rejuvenating technology, skin tigtening without surgery that can be done in as little as an hour.

That's right: no cutting, no bleeding, no bruising, and no downtime. This technique uses radio frequency (not laser) to heat beneath the skin's layer's causing the skin's natural collagen fibers to shrink; this stimulates the growth of new collagen, and the result is a tightening and firming of the surface layer that quite simply smoothes away wrinkles.

The hand held device used to deliver the energy contains a cryogen spray, which cools the skin's surface before, during and after each radio-frequency pulse. The cryogen prevents the Thermage from burning the skin. There is a slight redness after the treatment, but no blistering and no recovery time. You can resume normal activities the same day. The full results can take 4 to 6 months for the maximum tightening and smoothing to take effect.

Thermage is safe and effective for tightening and contouring the cheek and jaw line; softening smile lines and lifting the brow to open the eye area. Just weeks after a treatment you can see visible tightening and toning of the skin. Thermage is FDA approved for the non-invasive treatment of wrinkles around the eyes in November. The new cosmetic use clearance is based on clinical data showing that a single treatment can safely improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes (such as crow's feet). ?
