Collagen

Collagen is a building block or foundation of the skin which supports its structure. Over time collagen becomes depleted or damaged by the sun or other environmental factors. The result is visible signs of aging such as the appearance of thinner skin or "loose" skin. After years of research and development, Thermage, Inc. has developed a new procedure to treat the signs of aging skin.

The Thermage Procedure is a technologically advanced approach to treating aging skin. The Thermage Procedure works by heating the underlying layers of the skin with a unique delivery of radiofrequency (RF) energy while protecting the skin's top layer with a cooling spray. This is accomplished with advanced safety features that monitor skin temperature and regulate treatments. The result is a procedure that is designed to:

  • Cause immediate collagen contraction followed by new collagen production over a period of time resulting in a more youthful appearance
  • Reduce the occurrence of adverse effects by protecting the skin with cooling
  • Provide a "no downtime" procedure so you can resume normal activities immediately
