Thermage is a non-invasive treatment, which delivers tighter skin and healthier collagen. It employs a patented radiofrequency technology called ThermaCool that has been clinically proven to tighten and gently shrink the skin to smooth out wrinkles and tighten laxity. This non-surgical procedure has no down time and can be performed on patients of all skin types, creating smoother, healthier looking skin without having to go under the knife.

The ThermaCool device delivers a controlled amount of radiofrequency energy, which uniformly heats a large volume of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin while simultaneously protecting the outer layers of skin with cooling. This causes deep structures in the skin to tighten, and over time, new and remodelled collagen is produced.

Immediately after a Thermage procedure, patients often have an immediate lift and their skin will feel tighter and smoother. Additional tightening will continue for the next 6 to 12 months. Unpublished reports indicate that results may continue for 24 months or longer. Because all individuals are different it is not possible to predict exact benefits, and some individuals may need additional treatments to achieve the desired effects.

Although complications following Thermage are infrequent, there are some risks associated with treatment which include:
Bruising and Swelling: Resolves in several days to several weeks.
Erythema or Blanching: Mild reddening or whitening of the skin for several hours.
Pigment changes: Less than 0.05% of patients have reported hyper-pigmentation.
Burns and Blisters: Less than 0.3% reported cases
Surface Irregularities: Including dents, rippling and ridges in the skin, which may not develop until a month after treatment. Low incidence of 0.2%, with most resolving naturally, or with soft tissue fillers.
Pain and altered sensation: Some patients have reported heat related discomfort and transient aching. A small number of patients, less than 0.1% have reported tingling, numbness and temporary paralysis
If you have any concerns regarding the procedure, you can discuss this with the specialist staff before your procedure and they will me more than happy to put your mind at ease.

This treatment starts from £1950.
