Does Thermage Work on the Neck Area?

Dear Mary Ellen
Thermage is an excellent device for treatment of brow, eyelid, face and neck skin. It works by heating the deep layer if the skin with sound waves. Other areas where it works well is on the abdomen, buttocks and thighs to help tighten and tone the skin in these areas.
It is usually done with some oral sedation and can take 1.5 to 3 hours depending on the number of areas treated.
For the face , Botox is essential to achieve optimal skin tightening- particularly for the neck skin.
There is no downtime and maximal results are seen between 2 and 6 months and can last 2 to 3 years. For even more exceptional results in the face- it is nice to combine the use of some injectable fillers to restore facial volume.
With Warm Regards,

Thank you for your message! Thermage can absolutely be used on the neck and face for jowling. While our office performs the procedure on the entire face, we often focus on problem areas which often include the lower face and neck! Thermage results are usually seen within 2-6 months and we often recommend repeating the procedure 1-2 times a  year! I would recommend a consultation with a provider in your area for further information!
