Skin Tightening with Thermage

What Are Ulthera & Thermage, and how do they work?

Thermage is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin. Ulthera uses Ultrasound to achieve similar results. They both stimulate collagen production, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin over time.

What areas can be treated?

Ulthera & Thermage & is effective for tightening and lifting skin on multiple areas, including:

• Face & Jawline – Reduces sagging, jowls, and fine lines
• Eyes – Smooths wrinkles and lifts droopy eyelids
• Neck – Firms loose skin for a more defined jawline
• Body – Tightens skin on the abdomen, arms, thighs, and knees

How long does the treatment take?

A single session typically lasts 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area. There is no downtime, so you can resume normal activities immediately.

When will I see results, and how long do they last?

• Some improvement is visible immediately after treatment.
• Full results develop gradually over 3 to 6 months as new collagen forms.
• Results typically last 12 to 24 months, depending on age, skin condition, and lifestyle factors.

Are treatments painful?

We provide pain management medication to avoid any discomfort during your procedure.

How many treatment sessions do I need?

A single treatment is required and recommended yearly to maintain skin firmness and prevent sagging.

Are there any side effects?

Ulthera & Thermage are safe and FDA-and Health Canada approved, with minimal side effects, including:

• Temporary redness, buising or swelling (subsides within hours to a few days)
• Mild tingling or sensitivity in the treated area

How does these treatments compare to other skin tightening treatments?

Unlike treatments that require multiple sessions, these deliver long-lasting results in just one treatment. Compared to laser treatments or injectables, These focus on deep collagen remodeling rather than surface-level changes or muscle relaxation.

Can treatments be combined with other anti-aging treatments?

Yes! Many patients combine Ulthera or Thermage with:

• Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport) – To smooth dynamic wrinkles
• Dermal fillers – To restore lost volume
• PRP or microneedling – To enhance skin texture and collagen production
