What Does Thermage Feel Like? - Dr. Marwah's Clinic

1
Thermage is the non-invasive skin tightening
procedure that helps lift the skin of various
areas of the body like face, eyelids, neck,
chest, and hands. You can choose for the entire
face to be lifted by treating the jaws and
cheeks, or you can choose only one part of the
face like the forehead, eyebrows, jaws, cheeks,
or the area under the chin. But, how is this
possible, you may wonder. Radiofrequency energy
is used to create a uniform heating effect in
the deep dermis of the skin. The gentle heating
tightens the existing collagen, and stimulates
the production of new collages, which reduces
wrinkles and achieves cheek lifting, brow
lifting, and jaw line lifting. All of this
results in a more youthful appearance.
So, what does Thermage feel like? To understand
how the entire procedure feels, you need to
understand what the process is about. First, a
gentle cleanser is used to clean up your face.
Then, a small rubber patch is placed on your
abdomen. First, one side of the face will be
treated. Pulse by pulse, the doctor will do
multiple passes. Once the treatment is done on
one side, you will be shown the difference
between both the sides of the face. After the
treatment, you will start looking younger and
feeling more confident. However, not everyone
notices immediate results. It has been surveyed
that around 85 patients observe immediate skin
tightening, while others may experience
tightening after a few months. So, if you dont
experience immediate effects after the skin
tightening treatment,

worry not! The effects will be seen slowly and
gradually. No matter how long it takes to see
the results, but the results last long.
Generally, the results are observed to last for
around 2 years, or even more than that in some
cases. During the treatment, you will feel a
brief sensation of heat every time the Thermage
is pulsed. But, there is nothing to worry about.
In spite of the heat, your skin wont be
affected. This is because the device monitors the
surface temperature of the skin and applies a
cooling cryogen spray that is delivered before,
during, and after the application of heat. This
makes the entire procedure very comfortable, and
not painful. So, you can easily spend those 1-2
hours of treatment comfortably in your seat. You
can return to your normal activities immediately
after the treatment, which means no time wasted.
You can also apply all kinds of creams and
makeup after the treatment, as it will cause no
harm. There could be a little redness and
swelling, but it slowly disappears, which means
no discomfort can be felt. A single skin
tightening session may be enough, but at times,
it may also require another treatment after 6
months for final results. After that, maintenance
will be required every 1- 2 years. So, get in
