THERMAGE FLX – THE MOTHERS DAY GIFT SHE DIDNT KNOW SHE NEEDED
Introduction
Motherhood is a beautiful experience, but it can also be extremely challenging.
With it comes many changes, including your appearance. From the moment you conceive up until the time you give birth, your body goes through different stages to accommodate the growing baby inside of you.
A mother’s body after pregnancy is often different than it was before. Many women are eager to get their pre-pregnancy body back. Unfortunately, this is not always possible.
A variety of factors such as pregnancy weight gain, muscle separation (diastasis recti), and stretch marks can make losing the baby weight and achieving a tight post-pregnancy body difficult. Fortunately, there is a non-invasive treatment that can help called Thermage. Keep reading to learn more about Thermage and how it can help you achieve the post-pregnancy body you desire.
1- What is Thermage?
Thermage is a revolutionary skin tightening technology that allows clinicians to deliver radiofrequency energy precisely on the areas they need it most.
The non-invasive radiofrequency therapy treatment works by heating up fatty tissue underneath the surface level of our bodies to create collagen and elastin which results in an overall tighter and a more youthful appearance without any pain or discomfort!
2- Who’s a good candidate for thermage?
Thermage skin tightening can address a variety of issues, including sagging and fine lines. The best candidates for the procedure have early signs or wrinkles on their face as well as loose or jowls along with slight cellulite in some cases (though it’s not very effective). It isn’t an option if you’re currently undergoing treatment for any type of electronic implantable device like cardioverter/defibrillators which means that this service will most likely be out-of -date once they complete those therapies!
Afe wise, The best Thermage results are with patients about 25-55 years olds who want to maintain their collagen and get a little skin tightening. It also works well for patients who are older (over 55) for jawline maintenance.
3- The procedure
- During the procedure
The handpiece is placed flat on the targeted treatment area to allow for deeper penetration of RF energy. This gentle vibration will make you feel like your skin has been massaged, followed by a cooling sensation that helps reduce any discomfort from heat.
The average session lasts 30 minutes to two hours, depending on the size and condition of your area being treated. It typically requires 90+ minute treatment for larger areas like bodies but just 60 if you want it done mainly around eyelids – that’s why they’re called “eyelid surgery!”
- After the procedure
Most people are only entitled to one treatment session, and then they need maintenance treatments at least every six to 12 months.
Blotchy redness will subside within 24 hours of treatment and shouldn’t hinder your normal activities. swelling usually goes away in 5 days, but rare cases can last up to a week or more for severe lumps that require extra attention from doctors
Swelling usually disappears within five days, though in rare cases it can last a few weeks.
4- What are the risks and side effects of thermage?
