Loose skin is a frustrating concern that's difficult to address at home because it rarely responds to exercise or topical creams. Fortunately, in-office skin tightening treatments can deliver real results.
Thermage® FLX is a proven way to smooth, tighten, and contour your skin for a more youthful look. We're proud to offer it to our patients from Coral Gables and Miami, Florida. The Thermage logo symbolizes a cutting-edge treatment for skin rejuvenation and tightening available at Miami Skin & Vein, a leading medical aesthetics practice.
Thermage FLX is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency energy.
Radiofrequency energy gently penetrates the treatment area and heats your collagen. Your collagen then starts to change (called denaturation), causing it to contract and tighten up immediately. After this initial contraction, your skin begins a natural healing process where your body produces new collagen. This new collagen makes your skin firmer and thicker over time.
We will clean your treatment area and apply a grid to guide the process.
The Thermage FLX device delivers RF energy to the skin. Each pulse emits a cooling effect, followed by a brief heating sensation and another cooling phase to protect the skin.
The whole process typically lasts about 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Patients often experience minimal downtime with this treatment, making it a popular choice for those seeking practical cosmetic improvements without too much interruption to their daily activities.

You can book additional sessions as part of an ongoing maintenance plan. Thermage FLX results typically last for one or two years. However, pairing a good skincare routine with additional aesthetic services is a simple way to get more mileage out of Thermage.
It's important to visit a skilled practitioner who has experience with radiofrequency devices in order to achieve the best outcome. Dr. Shaun Patel is a leading provider of non-surgical aesthetic services in Florida.

Thermage FLX is often compared to other skin rejuvenation treatments such as Ultherapy, laser treatments, and microneedling. Here's how it stacks up:
The original Thermage treatment uses one-of-a-kind radiofrequency technology. Over two million Thermage treatments have been performed worldwide. It has a proven track record of safety and has been the focus of over 50 clinical studies.
Thermage FLX builds on this foundation while offering some notable improvements, such as:
Thermage FLX incorporates vibration to make the treatment more comfortable. The device also cools the surface of the skin. When the treatment tip touches your skin, you will feel a brief heating sensation followed by a cooling pulse. The latter helps to soothe and protect your skin. We can apply topical numbing cream before a Thermage FLX session if desired.
