What is Thermage Face and Neck?
Thermage is an FDA-approved non-invasive, no downtime skin tightening procedure. Also known as the “non-surgical facelift”, Thermage delivers radiofrequency energy to all three layers of the skin to accelerate the body’s natural collagen building process. As we age, our skin loses elasticity and firmness due to natural aging, accumulated sun exposure, smoke, and many other environmental factors. With inadequate elasticity, our skin begins to sag and wrinkle. Thermage targets the collagen-producing layers in the skin to strengthen and restore the damage, creating tighter, smoother skin.
Who is a candidate for Thermage Face and Neck?
Most individuals are candidates for Thermage, especially those looking for a safer, less painful alternative to surgery. Ideal candidates for Thermage are:
- Middle-aged patients beginning to show signs of skin sagging in the neck, brow, eyelid, jowls, and/or cheek
- Those who are not candidates for surgical facelifts
- Those who have had a prior facelift and desire further skin tightening

- Arms
- Stomach
- Breasts
- Thighs
- And more!
Thermage Body operates identically to Thermage face and neck, all of which are designed to tighten and tone many areas for a more youthful appearance!
When can I expect results from Thermage face and neck?
The results of Thermage are immediate and ongoing! The day that you receive the Thermage treatment, you will notice instant firmness and tightening of the treatment area. What is truly unique about Thermage is its ability to continue improving your results over the next several months following treatment! The body’s natural collagen building cycle takes several months to reach its peak production, so your best results will be seen after 6 months and continue for up to 2 years!
What does the Thermage application feel like?
The Thermage hand-piece contains a ThermaTip that delivers controlled dual heating and cooling to the skin. Most patients feel a brief deep-heat sensation as the RF waves are applied to the skin; this is when the existing collagen is being rejuvenated and new collagen growth begins. The ThermaTip then delivers a cooling effect with each pulse caused by Cryogen. In essence, Thermage for remedying the skin on the face and neck is safe, painless and comfortable!
