Frequently Asked Questions
HOW DOES THERMAGE FLX WORK?
The Ageing Process – As we get older, the collagen which keeps our skin firm and elastic start to break down. This can leave ageing, saggy skin with fine lines and wrinkles.
A Thermage FLX treatment uses radiofrequency technology. The RF technology heats deep into your skin, below the upper layers, to the deeper collagen-rich layers of the skin. The heat stimulates new collagen to start growing and forming.
The newly created collagen works from the inside out. It works away on the inside to greatly improve your appearance on the outside. Noticeably smoother skin can be experienced after just one treatment. Results continue to improve over the following months post-treatment.
WHAT PARTS OF MY FACE CAN THERMAGE FLX TREAT?
Thermage FLX can treat a number of areas on your face and eyes.
Face
Fine lines around the mouth, eyes, and forehead can be softened. Better definition on the jawline and under the chin can also be achieved.
- Sagging skin
- Loose jowls
- Sagging neck skin also known as “turkey neck”
- Adding definition to the lips
Eyes
Reduced wrinkles and improving the appearance of hooded eyelids can be addressed with the FLX. A wider eyed and awakened look results.
- eye bags
- hooding
- roughly textured eyelids
- wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes
- plus other factors leading to tired-looking eyes.
WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULTS ON MY THERMAGE FLX FACE TREATMENTS?
You will notice slight improvements immediately after your treatment. This could be a lift or tightening in the area treated. You will notice the best results at around the 2 -3 month mark after treatment. At this point you can also repeat the procedure to really double down for maximum benefits and experience additional improvements.
HOW DOES THERMAGE FLX COMPARE TO OTHER FACE TREATMENTS?
Compared to surgery Thermage is much safer. It is non-invasive compared to invasive cosmetic procedures which can require general anesthetic and leave you with the risk of infection and long recovery time. Unlike lasers, Thermage works on all skin colours and types.
Thermage FLX only requires one treatment to get the full benefits. It is the only treatment rejuvenating collagen deep in your skin.
Compared to injections or fillers, Thermage works for your whole face, including eyes, jawline, forehead, nasolabial folds, jowls and under your chin so is a great all-in-one option.
