One of the most popular non-invasive skin tightening treatments today is Thermage.
Let’s look at the newest update to the anti-ageing treatment that offers more precise and consistent skin tightening – the Thermage FLX.
Thermage® FLX is a non-invasive and FDA-approved aesthetic treatment that uses controlled radiofrequency to improve the effects of skin ageing. It results in skin tightening to combat sagging and wrinkles.
The Problem
Ageing is a natural process, but along with it comes many skin issues we must face. For example, the skin naturally becomes more sensitive, fragile, and less elastic as you age. But why does this happen?
In a nutshell, the decreased production of natural oils dries the skin, making it appear wrinkly. Also, collagen, the protein responsible for supporting tissues, diminishes, while the fat beneath the skin loses volume and tone.
The good news is that you can slow down the effects of premature ageing. Radiofrequency Skin Tightening (Advanced) is a skin-tightening treatment that can reduce wrinkles and sagging. It involves tightening the skin by stimulating collagen production.
Treatment
As people age, the skin loosens, causing wrinkles and fine lines. Radiofrequency Skin Tightening (Advanced) restores skin elasticity and is a non-invasive skin tightening procedure that treats wrinkles while improving the appearance of cellulite.
Specifically, it targets saggy skin, wrinkles, and fine lines in the face and neck. The most common conditions that can benefit from this treatment include periorbital wrinkles, crow’s feet, saggy eyes, nasolabial fold, Marionette lines, loose jowls, and lack of defined jawline.
Results
The procedure is recommended for people aged 35 and over, but younger people who experience premature signs of ageing can also benefit from it. Aside from addressing ageing, loose or saggy skin on the face and neck, it can also help tighten the skin on the abdominal area and thighs.
Its 4.0 cm2 total tip provides excellent surface area coverage for heat delivery, making the procedure faster. Further, its AccuREP technology has an autotuning feature before each energy pulse is delivered into the skin. Hence, it optimises the heat and energy for more precise heating and treatment.
For patients, the vibration elements are combined with cooling blasts of cryogen to help reduce discomfort during the procedure. Radiofrequency Skin Tightening (Advanced) provides visible skin improvements faster than previous generations (patients have reported at 1 month vs 3 months with previous generations), and is suitable for all skin tones and types. Even after the treatment, the skin continues to improve as the treated area goes through its natural collagen-rebuilding process.
Cost
The cost of this skin tightening, and anti-ageing treatment depends on the areas being treated. You can obtain a quotation during your initial consultation with Dr Tan.
