Summary Content

Thermage® is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that uses advanced radiofrequency (RF) technology to firm, smooth, and contour the skin—without downtime or invasive procedures. At Rejuvenation Dermatology, Thermage® is a trusted option for individuals seeking to reduce signs of aging and achieve a more lifted, youthful look.

This treatment works by delivering precise RF energy deep beneath the skin’s surface, stimulating new collagen production while tightening existing collagen fibers. Over time, this leads to noticeable improvements in skin tone, elasticity, and overall firmness. Thermage® is especially effective for treating loose or sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles on the face, eye area, neck, and body—including the stomach, thighs, and upper arms.

Suitable for all skin types and tones, Thermage® typically requires just one session, with gradual improvements continuing over 2 to 6 months and results lasting a year or more, depending on your skin’s natural aging process.

The procedure is safe and well-tolerated, with most patients describing a warming sensation during treatment. With no downtime, you can return to your daily routine right away.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, our skilled providers customize each Thermage® session to meet your specific skin needs and aesthetic goals, delivering effective, personalized results.

What is Thermage®?

Thermage® is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) treatment designed to tighten, smooth, and contour the skin by stimulating natural collagen production. Approved by both the Health Canada and Health Canada, this treatment effectively addresses visible signs of aging—such as fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity—without surgery or injections.

By delivering targeted RF energy deep into the dermis, Thermage® heats the collagen-rich layers of the skin, encouraging both immediate tightening and long-term collagen remodeling. This results in firmer, more youthful-looking skin with improved tone and texture over time.

    Thermage® involves no needles, cuts, or recovery period. Most people return to their normal routine immediately after treatment.

    The radiofrequency energy used in Thermage® penetrates deep into the skin, triggering the body’s natural collagen renewal process to gradually improve elasticity and firmness.

    It helps reduce the appearance of sagging, fine lines, and wrinkles—especially around high-movement areas like the eyes, jawline, and neck—resulting in a firmer, more youthful look.
  • Lasting Results After One Treatment
    Most patients notice improvement after a single session, with results continuing to develop over 2 to 6 months and lasting up to a year or longer.
  • Versatile Treatment Areas
    Thermage® can be used on various areas of the face and body, including the forehead, cheeks, under eyes, neck, abdomen, thighs, and upper arms.
  • Safe for All Skin Types
    This treatment is effective for both men and women across all skin tones and types, offering consistent, reliable outcomes.

What Conditions Can Thermage® Address?

Thermage® is a non-invasive, multi-purpose treatment designed to enhance skin firmness and reduce visible signs of aging. At Rejuvenation Dermatology, we use Thermage® to effectively treat a variety of common skin concerns, offering noticeable results without the need for surgery or injections. It’s especially beneficial for the following:

  • Loose or Sagging Skin
    Thermage® firms and lifts skin on the face, neck, and body by stimulating collagen remodeling—ideal for areas like the jawline, cheeks, and abdomen.
  • Fine Lines and Wrinkles
    It reduces the appearance of fine lines and softens deeper wrinkles, particularly around the eyes, forehead, and mouth, providing a smoother look.
  • Reduced Skin Elasticity
    By encouraging new collagen and elastin production, Thermage® helps restore elasticity, giving skin a firmer, more youthful feel.
  • Crepey or Thinning Skin
    The treatment helps improve skin density and resilience, making it suitable for delicate areas such as under the eyes, arms, and chest.
  • Mild Facial Volume Loss
    While not a filler, Thermage® enhances definition and contour by tightening the deeper layers of skin, offering a subtle, natural-looking lift.
  • Uneven Skin Texture
    It helps smooth rough or uneven areas, especially those impacted by early aging or sun exposure, improving tone and texture.

Thermage® is a safe and effective solution for individuals seeking full-face or body rejuvenation with little to no downtime.

What To Expect During Your Thermage® Treatment

Thermage® is a comfortable, in-office treatment that offers effective skin tightening and rejuvenation—without surgery, needles, or downtime. Here’s what to expect during your visit:

Initial Consultation and Evaluation
Your appointment begins with a detailed consultation to determine if Thermage® is suited to your needs. We’ll evaluate your treatment areas—such as the face, eyes, neck, or body—and customize the approach based on your goals.

Skin Preparation
The skin is gently cleansed, and a temporary grid may be applied to guide the accurate delivery of radiofrequency energy. Anesthesia isn’t required, as the device includes built-in cooling to ensure comfort during treatment.

Radiofrequency Application
Using a handheld device, controlled radiofrequency energy is delivered deep into the skin. You’ll feel a brief warming sensation followed by cooling. This process tightens existing collagen and encourages new collagen growth for gradual firming and smoothing.

Treatment Time
Depending on the area being treated, sessions typically last between 30 and 90 minutes.

Aftercare and Recovery
There’s no downtime. You may notice some mild redness or swelling, but these effects are temporary and usually resolve quickly. Most patients resume daily activities immediately.

Results continue to improve over the next 2 to 6 months as your skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more refreshed.

Thermage® FAQ:

Thermage® results typically last 12 to 18 months, depending on your skin condition, age, and lifestyle factors. As collagen continues to build after treatment, some patients experience ongoing improvement for several months post-procedure.
