People are either psyched or skeptical about this non-invasive and painless skin rejuvenation treatment, which is why Thermage has created a lot of buzz in the beauty industry. But even with what others has to say about this procedure, it is still best to know the facts yourself. What is it really that you need to expect and to look out for with Thermage skin rejuvenation treatment.
Thermage is an anti-aging treatment that removes wrinkles and fine lines through the use of Radiofrequency (RF) energy. The machine is moved over the surface on the particular area to be treated, and then it delivers the RF energy which heats the inner layers of the skin. This does not hurt the surface of the skin because the machine is equipped with a Thermacool system, however beneath the surface the dermal layers and all that composes it are heated. This action stimulates the healing process that promotes collagen production.
Collagen is a fibrous protein that is responsible for skin tightening and that lifting effect. When there is a healthy amount of collagen produced, it results to skin that looks and feels youthful, hence a rejuvenated appearance.
Aside from treating usual problem areas such as the forehead, eyes, and the areas around the mouth, Thermage skin rejuvenation treatment can also act on sagging on the neck and even cellulite. It is FDA-approved for these anti-aging and skin rejuvenation purposes that make it safer for the most part.
The results can sometimes be evident immediately after treatment, but for some it may take some time before they can appreciate some change. But it is known to improve after repeated sessions.
Unfortunately as much as Thermage sound so promising there is also a downside to this treatment.
Back in 2008 the company that created Thermage recalled their products because of a malfunction in their machines. Due to liquid that leaks into the main circuitry causes it to function badly and this affected a lot of patients.
The older machines which is rather hard to manipulate causes burns and uneven results. The radiofrequency energy delivered by the machine has the tendency to penetrate deeper than therapeutically needed into the skin which results to a dimpled or a lumpy appearance.
Some also complain of experiencing that painful sensation similar to a hot rubber band repeatedly snapping on their face as the RF energy is delivered.
It should also be known that if you are looking for something dramatic, Thermage treatment may not be what you need. Although there will be improvement, it will be subtle at best. Results will not be similar to what you can get with facelift, liposuction or Botox. That is why some patients complain that it did not work for them at all.
Thermage rejuvenation treatment can also treat cellulite however it is only limited to those that are in the initial stages, and not those that are deep and in an advanced form.
But innovations transformed old Thermage machines into something that delivers better and painless results. Therefore Thermage CPT was developed. It provides the best results as it gives out a uniformed treatment throughout the target area. The new machines also have user-friendly settings making giving operators less chances for mistakes.
I really hope this information helped you in making an informed decision should you ever decide to go for it or find another option.
