Five reasons to choose Thermage for skin tightening and enhancement
Thermage is one of many technologically advanced skin treatments available to patients at Apex Dermatology in Westlake Village, California. Dr. Karin Harp has invested in this equipment to provide her patients with nonsurgical solutions to tighten the skin, reduce crepiness, lift eyelids and improve overall appearance. But does Thermage work? Absolutely! Let’s examine why our patients love this treatment at our state-of-the-art aesthetic clinic.
Five reasons to choose Thermage for skin tightening and enhancement
- Long-lasting results. Thermage is known for its long-lasting results, making it an ideal choice for those looking to improve the appearance of their skin. The treatment utilizes radiofrequency energy to stimulate your skin’s natural collagen production, which helps tighten and smooth the skin. Unlike other treatments requiring frequent touch-ups or maintenance sessions, Thermage can provide lasting results for up to two years. Many patients enjoy an annual maintenance session to continue their rejuvenation or pre-juvenation.
- Non-invasive and safe. One of the main reasons people choose Thermage over other skin tightening treatments is that it is non-invasive and safe. The procedure does not involve incisions or injections, making it a great option for those hesitant about more invasive procedures. Additionally, Thermage has been FDA-approved for use on multiple areas of the body, including the face, neck, and body.
- Suitable for all skin types. Another advantage of Thermage is that it is ideal for all skin types. Unlike some laser treatments that may have limitations based on skin color or type, Thermage uses radiofrequency technology to safely treat a range of skin tones and textures. This makes it an ideal option for individuals with diverse skin concerns and needs.
- Minimal downtime. Compared to other cosmetic procedures, Thermage requires minimal to no downtime. Often, the skin is just a little more radiant that day, but if it is a little pink, that will usually go away in a few hours to a day. This means you can resume your daily activities and routine right after the procedure, making it convenient for those with busy schedules.
- Versatility. Thermage is not limited to just one body area; it can be used on various parts, including the face, neck, eyelids, arms, abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. This makes it a versatile option for individuals with multiple concerns or who want to address different areas of the body with a single treatment session at Apex Dermatology.
