While Thermage has rapidly gained ground as a great procedure for looking younger, without the costs and risks of a facelift, some people are still concerned about whether the procedure is safe as its promoters claim. Here we'll outline the main risks we've uncovered.

It is routine for the skin to look reddish for two days or less upon completion of Thermage as a result of collagen stimulation, but this redness vanishes as time passes. Results are traditionally seen promptly after a individual leaves the treatment room. An individual is expected to see and feel a smoother face. As a result of skin shaping, skin form is enhanced making it look younger and finer.

After the therapy, enhancements continue to be viewed as a result of the multiplication of new collagen fibers. Continual shaping should be noticed as time passes. These outcomes are expected to last for a minimum of six months.

When treatment has been concluded, the patient should feel normal and resume normal everyday tasks without special follow up. In spite of that, some patients need close observation by the physician depending on the type of skin and area of treatment.

Thermage has one snag. It can lead to scarring and there is a chance of nerve destruction. This is manifested by incapacity to move muscles around the treated location. This can be coined as partial paralysis and is brief. Excessive bleeding, infections, and blood clots are possible but rare.
