Shaun Patel, MD · Answer

Actually the newest Thermage device, which came out in late 2017 is the Thermage FLX. Which each subsequent iteration of the device, there have been improvements in comfort, speed, and efficiency.

Michele S. Green, MD · Answer

The new Thermage CPT works better and is more comfortable.  The Thermage CPT produces new collagen and tightens through radiofrequency. The main difference is the CPT tip and its technology which allows one to have deeper heating and increased comfort and skin tightening results.  Best, Dr. Green

New device has a better pulse delivery for the RF energy, and the CPT is less painful and more effective than the older generation system. Having said that, it is patient selection that is most important for Thermage. Dr Isobel Walker, Brisbane. Australia.

Less pain with the newer device. Still uses the same RF technology to heat collagen and contract tissue, but with the new system there is less pain. All the best, Dr Davin Lim
