Many people don’t think about skin tightening for our face, neck, or body until after the age of 30, when our production of collagen and elastin slows down. This is the time when we start to notice that our skin is not as bouncy and vibrant as before. We may even begin to see wrinkles and sagging skin become more prominent.
Aging is a funny thing. One day, you’re a young adult straddling the line between enjoying your baby face while hoping to be taken seriously in business meetings. Next thing you know, you’re excitedly telling your friends that you got ID’d at the liquor store while scrutinizing yourself in one of those darn 20x magnifying mirrors. It’s not long before you’re tugging your skin back towards your ears and noticing things aren’t quite sitting where they used to.
The Search For Effective Skin Tightening Treatments
Naturally, you would try many different topical facial products, creams, lotions, or serums that have been recommended by online influencers, friends, or family members. However, these products offer very minimal skin tightening results that help treat loose skin on the face, neck, chin, decolletage, eyes, and even your body. It may take several months before you see a slight improvement on your skin.
Over drinks with friends, the subject of facelifts is sometimes cautiously broached or even joked about. Our conversations would sometimes include us saying:
- “So-and-so had a nip and a tuck.”
- “This person looks like she got caught in a wind tunnel.”
- “That person actually looks great but the recovery was brutal.”
Surgery isn’t something you would do of course, at least…not yet. We’re lucky to live in a time where self care is valued and to have access to non-invasive, anti-aging treatments like Thermage CPT.
Thermage Treatment For the Face & Neck
With over 1 million treatments performed, Thermage CPT is the gold standard when it comes to skin tightening for the face and neck. You can even treat your eyes too!
Thermage uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deep tissue which generates new collagen and elastin without any downtime. Unlike a facelift, Thermage treatments not only tighten the skin, but also address other common signs of aging such as mild laxity and fine wrinkles on the face and neck. Brows and jowls can be lifted resulting in a more youthful appearance and smoother, healthier skin.
With the deep heating technology, Thermage CPT renews natural collagen to produce smoother, younger, natural looking results. The entire process is simple and can take up to three hours. It is a very safe procedure with little to no downtime.
Results will improve over time and you can keep the benefits sustained by repeating a treatment every 6 to 12 months. You may even pair it with other non-invasive treatments such as BOTOX and Juvederm for optimal results.
Perhaps the best part is that your results are subtle and natural which makes Thermage a great fit for that preventative, self-care mindset. With Thermage, you can be sure that the person in the mirror will simply be a refreshed version of yourself!
