What is Thermage?
The Thermage device received clearance from the FDA for tightening loose facial and body skin in July 2002 and has been available in selected San Diego doctors' offices since then. A subsequent appearance on Oprah launched Thermage to household name status.
How does Thermage work?
Radiofrequency energy in the form of heat is delivered to the skin through a handpiece with a smooth, flat tip, causing immediate tightening of collagen. Thermage can be performed on patients of any skin color.
Thermage promises that new collagen will form following treatment, resulting in additional tightening and smoother, younger-looking skin. Over time, the tighter underlying collagen offers better support. Thermage is not surgery and requires no downtime, meaning that patients can return to normal activities immediately.
What does Thermage treatment feel like?
During the treatment, you'll feel a heating sensation. A cooling spray may applied before, during and after each application of energy to keep you more comfortable.
Tips for finding the right San Diego Thermage provider
1. Laser medicine is generally regulated by San Diego state and local authorities. Check your state's guidelines for specifics.
2. If a topical anesthetic is required for treatment, discuss the circumstances under which the cream should be used, and verify whether the use is appropriate in your situation.
3. Verify that your San Diego Thermage provider is licensed and trained to provide the procedure.
Do not commit to Thermage with a San Diego doctor based solely upon advertising, special pricing, or the referral of another patient before fully researching the background of the physician or provider.
