A New Thermage - Better Response, Better Technology and Better Treatment Experience
Thermage for Face and Body - Now with the latest advances of CPT™ (Comfort Pulse Technology)
"This latest technology promises to exceed our already excellent results with Thermage by including more effective levels of energy dispersion along with a new comfort feature.
To get the best results, energy levels need to be strong enough to recoil loose collagen and spur the new formation of elastin fibers. This tightens sagging skin with no downtime, no shots, no medication. It’s quite a marvel of a treatment."
Dr.Mani
100% of Thermage study patients preferred treatment with the Thermage CPT system vs. treatment with prior technologies. Average patient satisfaction scores 3 months post treatment were 4.2 out of 5 (1=dissatisfied, 5=very satisfied).
The redesigned treatment tips deliver enhanced heat distribution and uniformity, which lead to improved volumetric heating. A greater volume of tissue is heated to target temperatures and the heating is more evenly distributed across the treatment area. Data from the Thermage clinical study demonstrates that the Thermage CPT system heats four times more tissue to therapeutic temperatures than current technologies.
The new energy delivery computer-controlled system interweaves pulsed radio frequency delivery with cooling bursts mimicking Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation ("TENS") therapy, to disrupt the brain's neural response and improve comfort during treatment.
A new vibrating handpiece offers a clinically proven improvement in patient comfort. In controlled, split-faced clinical studies, comparing treatment of over 40 patients with vibration to treatment without vibration, all patients preferred being treated with vibration.

How Thermage Works to Tighten Skin
The Thermage system uses a sophisticated treatment tip called Thermatip, which delivers a controlled amount of RF energy. With each touch to the skin, the Thermatip device uniformly heats a large volume of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin and its underlying tissue while simultaneously protecting the outer layer of the skin with cooling.
This deep uniform heating action causes the loose and disorganized collagen structures in your skin to immediately tighten. Over time, new and remodeled collagen is produced to further tighten skin, resulting in healthier, smoother skin and a more youthful appearance.

Younger more refreshed looking eyes.
Dr. Mani has worked over 18 years with lasers in the treatment of eye conditions. The procedure reduces hooding of the eyelids without surgery while softening fine lines and crow's feet.
"After years of getting up at 2AM to deliver 4 hours of live television everyday... I looked tired! I didn't want surgery, but I was looking for a way to counter some of the effects of natural aging, long hours and stress. Dr. Nasrin Mani is my new best friend!"
