Thermage Radiofrequency for Noninvasive and Nonablative Body Contouring

Thermage is a noninvasive and nonablative body-contouring technology that applies monopolar radiofrequency energy. This radiofrequency technology induces dermal collagen remodeling and eventual tightening of the skin and improvements in skin quality. Since rejuvenation with Thermage treats rhytides, skin laxity, and cellulite without damaging the epidermis, there is minimal recovery time and minimal risk of complications. The Thermage device is found to be an effective and safe method of body contouring.
