Thermage treatments for skin tightening use a noninvasive radio frequency energy to re-tighten loose and sagging tissues. Best suited for early aging issues, Thermage can be seen almost as a "prevention measure" to slow the beginning natural collagen degradation that comes as you get into your 30's and 40's.

After your 20's, the collagen in your skin begins to uncoil and break down, almsost imperceptibly at first and later resulting in wrinkles and sagging skin. With Thermage your skin's existing collagen is remolded (recoiled into a tighter spiral closer to younger collagen) -  and new collagen production is stimulated. The promotion of new collagen growth continues to help you look younger and improves over time. The result is skin that looks and feels noticeably smoother and tighter with more defined and youthful contours.

How Thermage and Ultherapy Lift Compare

This past year, technology has handed us a new weapon in the war on aging - the Ultherapy Lift. We've been asked which is better, Thermage or Ultherapy Lift. But it's not which one is better, but where YOU are on the aging curve and which procedure will be the best fit.

A quick comparison:

• Thermage provides what is called "bulk heating" which provides an overall effect on collagen to retighten and kindle new collagen production. Perfect for early aging and minimal to moderate skin laxity.
• Ultherapy Lift is based on "focal heating" which penetrates much deeper to affect the SMAS layer which is the same layer of tissue plastic surgeons pull and tighten in a surgical facelift. Best for those who want the deepest possible tissue improvements.
• Both procedures are totally noninvasive, nonsurgical, FDA approved treatments.
• Both procedures are managed with medication to lessen any treatment discomfort or pain ; or by the use of anesthetic nerve blocks for Ultherapy
• Although Thermage has been the most innovative treatment for sagging skin over the last 9 years, for those with more obvious facial and neck sagging,  Ultherapy provides actual lift at a surgically-comparable level.  Learn about Ultherapy Lift here.

How Thermage Works to Tighten Skin

The Thermage Thermacool 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. See the results (Individual results may vary)

"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!"...Marc Bailey, News Anchor for San Diego 6; Thermage and Thermage Eyes Patient

Another eyelid smoother is the DeepFX CO2 laser. This laser is designed to remove wrinkling and in the process tightens skin on the face, neck and eyelids.
