Thermage can rejuvenate the skin and remove wrinkles, without having to go under the knife. Its a great option for a person looking to achieve a young look quickly and cost effectively.
Thermage uses energized radio waves to heat collagen, a type of skin protein. The high temperature causes production of fresh collagen, which makes the tissue tighter, giving the skin a youthful look. The treatment is painless, with only a mild irritation reported in a small number of cases. There are hardly any side effects and the treatment can be used on other parts of the body such as the arms and thighs.
Most people may not be able to get financial assistance for the procedure from their health plans and hence the cost may not be affordable to some. Since the procedure is not currently offered everywhere, you may first need to do some research on which closest city or town it is available in. Second, you must consider the actual treatment charges like the fee charged by the outpatient facility, local anaesthesia charges, and post-treatment medication costs. The total treatment expenditure is likely to be somewhere between $1000 to $5000, depending on the area of the body being considered for procedure.
Just like the cost, the time of the procedure also varies depending on the body part under treatment, and can range from 15 to 60 minutes. The healing period is almost negligible in Thermage and this is a huge advantage for the people seeking the treatment. As described on the Thermage website, this has great appeal to most potential clients, especially when they are looking for a much smaller shift in appearance than with orthodox facelift surgery.
No other current cosmetic procedure matches the convenience of Thermage and therefore, if you are seeking younger looks, it is just the treatment for you. It’s definitely worth looking into.
