Thermage® Skin-Tightening in Toronto

Thermage® is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that can transform your skin, giving you a youthful glow. It works by using radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the dermis, the layer of skin just under the surface. In doing so, it stimulates the production of collagen, restoring volume and natural beauty to the skin. Thermage® treatment can be used in numerous areas, including around the eyes, at the jawline, knees, thighs, hands, and numerous other areas.

At TPS Wellness Centre, we offer Thermage® in Toronto. We believe in providing each client with exceptional support on their journey to being the most beautiful version of themselves. We take pride in offering the latest technology and advanced treatments to support incredible transformations. If you’re ready to learn how radiofrequency skin tightening can change the look of your skin and give you confidence, set up a consultation today.

How Radiofrequency Energy Rejuvenates Skin

Thermage® is a radiofrequency skin tightening treatment. This non-invasive cosmetic treatment does not cause any pain or discomfort, but provides effective results in a short amount of time. It’s been used for more than a decade to create a non-surgical facelift in Toronto, and at TPS Wellness Centre, we stand behind its ability to transform.

Mechanism of Action (Dual Effect)

Thermage® treatment uses a two-part mechanism to tighten skin. That includes radiofrequency applied directly to the skin, which penetrates deep into the dermal layers. In doing so, heat warms collagen fibres and causes the collagen to contract. This creates a subtle but instant lifting effect.

Additionally, this process triggers the production of new collagen, supporting the improvement of your skin’s rejuvenation. While heating the dermal layers, the same device works to cool the exterior layers. This stimulates fresh collagen production over time.

Targeting All Skin Layers

With the application of Thermage®, the exterior layers of your skin show a firming and tightening right away while the deeper layers continue to work to produce new, youthful collagen to keep your skin looking its very best. The entire process occurs without any need for complex surgeries.

What Thermage® Treats

Thermage® is a non-invasive skin tightening process that can provide for multiple areas of significant improvement. It tightens and contours locations to create youthful-looking skin where you want it the most.

Rejuvenating the Face and Neck

Thermage® treatment very commonly works to treat the face and neck areas, including the jowls, fine lines, tighten the frown lines, and soften wrinkles across all areas of your face. It can provide treatment in the form of contouring, tightening, and improving skin volume.

Lifting and Smoothing the Eyes

For those who have fine lines around their eyes or skin texture that is looser than it used to be, Thermage® can be highly effective. It can help with fine lines around your eyes, crow’s feet, as well as drooping eyelids. Treatment for the eyes and hooding of the upper lids can restore your natural youth.

Contouring the Body

Skin tightening can happen across numerous areas of your body with Thermage® treatment in Toronto. That includes the abdomen, sagging skin on the arms and thighs, buttocks, and hands. It can help treat most areas of the body where skin is loose, sagging, or wrinkled from stress or aging.

Is Thermage® Right for You?

Thermage® is Health Canada and FDA-approved for the treatment of a range of areas. However, some people may have better results than others, depending on the condition of their skin.

Identifying the Best Candidates

Thermage® treatment may be ideal for those who have mild to moderate skin laxity, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and areas of gentle sagging. It is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, including darker skin tones. The best candidates for treatment are in good health without any infections in the treatment area. You should also have realistic expectations of what treatment can offer to you.

When Thermage® May Not Be Suitable

Thermage® is not approved for use by those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. It may not be ideal for those who have significant signs of aging, such as those with deep skin folds or wrinkles that do not relax.

The Thermage® Treatment Process at Our Clinic

TPS Wellness Centre is committed to providing you with exceptional solutions for all of your cosmetic needs. If you are ready to explore a highly effective, non-surgical facelift in Toronto or want to take care of that hanging skin in another area, set up a consultation with us. Expect outstanding service and highly trained professionals to help you.

Personalized Consultation and Assessment

The first step is to meet with our Thermage® team to learn about the process and how well it can help you. We will provide you with a full examination, discuss your expectations, and provide you with insight into how well Thermage® can restore your youthful look and get rid of those problem areas.

During the Treatment Session

At TPS Wellness Centre, we use Thermage® FLX, a newer therapy that is designed to smooth, tighten, and contour your skin with very little to no downtime. This is a more comfortable procedure than other styles and remains a non-invasive process. There is no needle involved, and the results are all natural.

Most treatment sessions range from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the location and number of treatment areas. The area is cleansed before application of a handheld device. This device moves slowly over the treatment area as RF energy penetrates into it. You may feel a bit of warmth, but there is no pain or discomfort during the process. You can go back to your daily activities right away.

Immediate Tightening and Gradual Improvement

Once you are finished with your treatment session, you’ll notice a significant level of improved skin tone and texture, with tightening of surface area wrinkles and fine lines already happening. This may improve over the next few days. Typically, you will see significant results continue to happen over a gradual period. This occurs as new collagen production occurs.

Benefits of Thermage®: A Non-Surgical Lift

If you’re ready to see results from skin tightening in Toronto, Thermage® could be the best solution for you. TPS Wellness Centre offers a wide range of treatment options, including supportive and complementary procedures. There are numerous benefits to choosing Thermage® as your skin-tightening treatment.

Non-Invasive and No Downtime

Come in for a treatment session, and go home without any areas of discomfort or complicated wounds to clean. Thermage® is fully non-invasive, without even the use of needles. It also creates no downtime, which means you can resume your day-to-day activities as soon as you would like to do so.

Single Treatment Session

While there may be reasons to come back for additional Thermage® treatment, like targeting a different area, most people need just one treatment to start seeing results. This can make it one of the best non-surgical lifts available for the amount of improvement it offers without the need for ongoing upkeep.

Natural-Looking Results

With radiofrequency skin tightening, the goal is to allow your body’s natural mechanisms to work for you. This procedure stimulates your immune system into producing new collagen while working to tighten up loose skin. The results are natural-looking. You look like you, just a younger version of your skin. This creates exceptional improvement.

Effective for All Skin Tones

Thermage® is safe on all skin tones when applied by a trained professional. Unlike other skin tightening products that do not do so, Thermage® works well on any type of skin, including darker colours.

Versatile Treatment Areas

When you come in for a consultation, we will discuss the treatment areas that Thermage® can work for your specific needs. For most clients, this is extensive, giving you the ability to tighten skin in most areas of your body. From your abdomen to your thighs, face, neck, and arms, Thermage® is versatile enough for treatment of wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging just about anywhere. That includes the neck, buttocks, arms, knees, thighs, eyes, and more.

Risks, Side Effects, and Aftercare

Health Canada and the U.S. FDA have approved Thermage® for the treatment of skin laxity. It is overall a safe product when applied by a trained professional.

Common Side Effects

It is not uncommon for patients to experience some minor side effects. This includes areas of tenderness to the touch and some swelling. Both are signs that the treatment is working, as your body’s immune system is responding. Redness is also very common. These symptoms typically improve within a few hours.

Rare but Possible Side Effects

Some people may face more significant and higher-risk side effects. Though rare, you may have skin peeling, bruising, and burns. Some people may experience hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.

Post-Treatment Care

After your treatment with TPS Wellness Centre, we will provide you with a comprehensive, step-by-step process for how to care for your skin after treatment. While you are able to get back to your daily life, you should avoid any strenuous activities or activities that irritate, inflame, or damage the skin. Use fragrance-free, mild cleaning agents and moisturizers on your skin. It is very important to invest in broad-spectrum sunscreen before heading outdoors. Follow up with our team for additional support.

The Cost of Thermage® Treatment

The cost of Thermage® is dependent on numerous factors. You can expect your session to cost between $1,800 and $5000. Keep in mind that this treatment typically requires only a single application for most individuals.

Factors Influencing the Total Cost

What you pay for Thermage® is dependent on the treatment area. You may wish to treat more than one area or need more intense treatment and follow-up care. You may also be able to couple this procedure with others that complement it and fit your needs to get an overall better price.

Is Thermage® Covered by Insurance?
