Thermage Deep Contour  Body Shape Procedure


Thermage's Body Shape procedure is a non-invasive procedure that can help tighten, firm and shape the body following just one treatment, without surgery or injections and little to no downtime.

The new Thermatip DC is designed for use on patients who are not significantly overweight but want to do more than just tighten and smooth their bodies. The ThermaTip DC™ (Deep Contouring) treatment tip heats 79% deeper than the ThermaTip STC and TC to help firm and shape the body.

Thermage News Release
The Body Shape procedure is ideal for men and women who are not significantly overweight and are looking to help firm sagging skin and reduce unwanted bulges that dieting and exercise alone cannot seem to change.

Results vary from subtle to dramatic. Generally, some improvement is immediately visible and continues for up to six months. Results are long lasting depending on your skin condition and the aging process

How does the Thermage procedure work?
The procedure works by heating deep collagen fibers in the skin and underlying tissue, while protecting the skin's surface with a cooling spray. The treatment is performed with the ThermaCool™ device. A ThermaTip, attached to a handheld device, briefly touches the skin, delivering the non-invasive CRF energy deep beneath the skin. This deep uniform heating action causes the deep structures in the skin and underlying tissue to immediately tighten. Over time, new and remodeled collagen is produced to further tighten skin and renew facial contours.

How long does the Thermage procedure take?
The Thermage procedure is a completely non-invasive, safe treatment that is performed only in a doctor's office. Depending on the size of the area to be treated, the procedure may take as little as 20 minutes or up to two hours.

How many treatments will I need?
Unlike many laser procedures requiring four or more sessions, a single Thermage treatment produces results in the majority of patients. The treating doctor will determine the course of treatment that is right for each patient, based on the patient's needs and goals.

When will I see results?
Immediate results are visible, and improve over time. Measurable tightening and contouring improvements appear gradually over a two to six month time period following a single treatment session.
