Thermage or Focus Ultrason – Skin Tightening
We offer Thermage or Focus Ultrason for our patients. This radio frequency skin tightening treatment produces smooth, lasting results on the skin.
OVERVIEW
Patients concerned about skin irregularities such as wrinkles and loose skin may consider radio frequency skin tightening as a nonsurgical alternative for facial rejuvenation. This technology is one of the biggest breakthroughs for the anti-aging market.
PROCEDURE PROCESS
Thermage or Focus Ultrason are performed in hospital and does not require anesthesia. We will mark the target areas, apply a cool gel to the surface of the skin, and gently roll the skin with a small circular hand piece that emits RF waves. The energy waves targets the tissue just below the skin’s surface.
WHAT TO EXPECT
During the treatment, the patient can only feel the heat. They do not feel any pain or discomfort. The treated areas may remain red and swollen for a few hours after the procedure. After 5 – 6 hours, patients can continue their normal activities.
Results start appearing within 2 days of treatment, but it takes several months for the full effect to become visible as the collagen production does its work. Some patients may require multiple treatment sessions. Results can last up to 2-3 years.
