AGEING WELL CAN COME DOWN
TO GENETICS, BUT WE ALSO HAVE
A ROLE TO PLAY IN DETERMINING
HOW WE AGE.
still is. There are other devices on the market now, but
why change when we know it works?
Thermage FLX produces both instant and longlasting
results. There is an immediate noticeable
improvement in the texture and tone of the skin, with
a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles and sagging, as the
existing collagen fibres tighten and contract. However,
the most significant and long-lasting results from
Thermage come from the stimulation of new collagen
production. Over the next several months, as new
collagen is produced, the skin continues to become
tighter and smoother. Sally says she personally notices
a difference 2 months after the treatment, with full
results taking up to 6 months.
She says Thermage is an important tool for Skin
Renu clinic. ‘Thermage FLX is popular with our
patients, with many requesting the treatment annually.
Halfway during treatment we invite patients to sit up
and look at the one side treated. It shows what to
expect. This should settle as any immediate swelling
subsides, but it gives a good indication of the
expected result.’
‘It also has no downtime, which is huge for the
working woman,’ she says. ‘I have personally had a
Thermage treatment and gone out that night without
a worry of any noticeable changes to my face.’
FOR ME, PERSONALLY,
THERMAGE FLX HAS
PROBABLY ALLOWED ME
TO AGE MORE SLOWLY
THAN I WOULD HAVE
OTHERWISE.
