Thermage and treatment of the aging neck skin

Thermage works well for many people with jowls and saggy necks

Not all patients are candidates for Thermage, especially very elderly individuals with inelastic skin. For those who have saggin skin but good elasticity, jowls can be lifted when the cheeks are treated along wtih the neck.

Thermage is very good for the jowl and jawline.

Hi! In our New York practice, the jowl and jawline is the most common, and one of the most effective, areas for Thermage. We found that tightening the lower face with Thermage decreases the need for fillers. The treatment extends one inch below the jawline. If you have loose skin in the lower neck, then Thermage is not the answer. You may need a neck lift.
