How Thermage works?
Collagen is the main structural component of the skin. Loss of collagen results in sagging skin, increased laxity and deepening of the wrinkles.
Thermage involves heating of the collagen which initiates two natural biological reactions:
- It causes the collagen to contract and thicken (protein denaturation) contributing to some immediate results.
- The body’s natural healing response initiates new collagen creation during the following couple of months which is responsible for long-term skin tightening.
There is no any down time after the procedure, which makes it very convenient for people that cannot afford time off their busy schedule. it is done as a single treatment. It can be used in any skin type. This procedure is performed exclusively under supervision by aesthetic physicians or plastic surgeons who are accredited by Thermage. Dr. Sly Nedic is one of them.
