What is Thermage FLX?
Thermage is the most popular “sagging treatment” and is practiced in more than 80 countries around the world. “Thermage FLX” is the latest model released in 2018, which significantly shortens treatment time and reduces pain. You can expect an immediate tightening effect due to collagen production after high-frequency irradiation, and a tightening effect that lasts for about six months to a year.
About RF High Radio Frequency Treatment
This is a skin treatment method that uses high frequency waves to heat the inside of the skin using frictional heat between water molecules and contract collagen, tightening the skin and improving sagging and wrinkles.
